V. Reading Comprehension: (35分)
Directions: Read the following four passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
(A)
The majority of astronauts from America have been men. At the start of the space programme there was strong resistance from some people against having women in space. However, some women were very keen to become astronauts and in the end they were successful. In 1978, NASA began the first training programme for women astronauts.
Judy Resnick and Christa McAuliffe were both astronauts and they were both women, but in many other ways they were very different. Both of them were on Flight STS-5L-L. Judy Resnick was born in 1949 and studied engineering at university and went on to obtain a PhD in 1977. She was a member of the first group of women selected for astronaut training in 1978, and in 1984, she became the second woman in space. During that flight, she helped to launch three new satellites and she carried out a programme of research. She was, in many ways, a professional astronaut whose whole life was devoted to space travel.
Christa McAuliffe was born in 1948 and she was an astronaut almost by accident. In 1984, NASA decided to find a teacher who could accompany astronauts into space. They hoped that she would be able to communicate with students from space and encourage every one of them to be interested in space travel. Christa was a secondary teacher in history and social studies. She was a gifted teacher and she was selected from over 11,000 applicants to go on flight STS-51-L. She was also a very good communicator and she immediately established a very good relationship with the news media(radio, television and newspapers). It was partly because of this that there was a great deal of interest and excitement about the flight. Thousands of students in schools and universities all around the country were looking forward to communicating with Christa in space. Millions of people were watching her flight with great interest. It is partly because of the excitement over McAuliffe's place in the flight that the disaster in 1986 had such an effect on people.

(B)
A is for always getting to work on time.
B is for being extremely busy.
C is for the conscientious （勤恳的）way you do your job.
You may be all these things at the office, and more. But when it comes to getting ahead, experts say, the ABCs of business should include a P, for politics, as in office politics.
Dale Carnegie suggested as much more than 50 years ago: Hard work alone doesn’t make career advance.You have to be able to sell yourself and your ideas, both publicly and behind the scenes. Yet, despite the obvious rewards of being good at office politics－a better job, a raise, praise－many people are still unable －or unwilling －to “play the game. ”
“Some people feel that office politics means some manipulative（工于心计的）behavior, ”says Deborah Comer, an assistant professor of management at Hofstra University. “But politics comes from the word ‘polite’. It can mean being kind and helpful, or even trying to please your boss, and then expecting something in return. ”
In fact, today, experts define office politics as proper behavior used to gain one’s own interest in the workplace. In many cases, this includes some form of socializing within the office environment-not just in large companies, but in small workplaces as well.
“The first thing people are usually judged on is their ability to perform well on a consistent basis, ”says Neil P. Lewis, a management psychologist. “But if two or three people are up for a promotion,each of whom has similar ability, a manager is going to promote the person he or she likes best. It’s simple human nature. ”
Yet, psychologists say, many employees and employers have trouble with the politics in the office. Some people, they say, have an idealistic vision of work and what it takes to succeed. Still others mistake politics for flattery （奉承）, fearful that, if they speak up for themselves, they may appear to be flattering their boss for favor.
Experts suggest changing this negative picture by recognizing the need for some self-promotion.
69.What does “office politics” mean according to the passage?
A. The code of behavior for company staff.
B. The political views and beliefs of office workers.
C. The interpersonal relationships within a company.
D. The various qualities required for a successful career.
70.To get promoted, one must not only be capable but ______.
A. give his boss a good impression B. honest and loyal to the company
C. get along well with his company D. avoid being excellent
71.It is the author’s view that ______.
A. speaking up for oneself is part of human nature
B. self-promotion does not necessarily mean flattery
C. hard work has very little to do with one’s promotion
D. many employees fail to recognize the need of flattery
(C)
Special trees that grow faster, fight pollution, produce better wood, and even sense chemical attacks are being planted by scientists in the US.
When 40 per cent of Hawaii's US$14 million-a-year papaya (木瓜)industry was destroyed by a virus five years ago, work began on creating genetically engineered (转基因的) trees.
Researchers successfully introduced seeds that were designed to resist the virus. Since then, more and more people have been testing genetically engineered trees.
Some researchers put special bacteria into trees to help them grow faster and produce better wood. Others are trying to create trees that can clean polluted soil.
Meanwhile fruit farmers are looking for trees that are strong enough to resist worms, and paper companies want trees that produce more wood and therefore more paper.
The Pentagon (五角大楼) even gave the researchers US$500,000 this year after they developed a pine tree that changes its colours if it senses a chemical attack.
So far, the poplar, eucalyptus (杨树与桉树), apple and coffee trees are among those being engineered. All this can be done today because we have a better understanding of tree genomes (基因组).
However, some people fear that the genetically engineered trees will cause dangerous results. They are worried that the new trees will breed with natural species and change the balance of the forest environment.
"It could be destructive," said Jim Diamond, an environmentalist. "Trees are what is left of our natural environment and home to many endangered species."
But researchers insist that science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
They hope to answer the critics by stopping the new trees from breeding, so their effect on the environment can be controlled.
72.Which kind of tree is not the ones that scientists are planting in the US?
A. Trees that worms can't hurt.
B. Trees that can protect themselves at a chemical attack.
C. Trees that can resist wind better.
D. Genetically engineered trees.
73.What caused the American scientists to work on special trees?
A. They think science could give nature a fighting chance against both natural and man-made dangers.
B. Great numbers of trees have been lost due to attacks by viruses.
C. Researchers successfully introduced seeds designed to resist the virus.
D. Tree genomes are mapped out so scientists know how to improve trees.
74.Which of the following was probably the first kind of trees being engineered?
A. Papaya. B. Pine. C. Apple. D. Poplar.
75.Why did critics think engineered trees dangerous? Because _______.
A. these trees can destroy the balance of nature
B. everything except trees has been genetically engineered
C. trees are home to many endangered species
D. these trees may affect normal trees
(D)
A picture, a calendar or even a balloon may be the best way for millions of people living in China's vast country areas to learn about AIDS, one of the biggest threats to public health in the world today.
China has decided to use user-friendly methods including exhibitions, VCDs and TV programmes to spread knowledge of the disease across the nation to try to keep it in check. Educating people nationwide about AIDS is the top priority (优先权) to prevent the disease from getting out of hand. The farmers will be given knowledge in the easiest way that they can understand.
A recent survey from the commission (调查团) of more than 7,000 people in China showed that nearly 20 percent of them had never heard of AIDS before. Just over 71 percent said they knew AIDS was highly infectious (传染的), but most of them had no clear idea of how the disease could be spread. Just over 62 percent said they knew they could do things in advance to prevent them catching AIDS but they didn't know what these measures were.
The month-long survey, carried out last December, talked to people in seven counties and cities across China including both developed coastal areas and the less-developed inland areas. The interviewees changed from 15 to 49 years old, and country residents were about 63% of the total surveyed.
Chinese residents, especially those in the country, have very little knowledge about what AIDS is all about, not to mention prevention and treatment. By the end of last year, there were 22,517 known HIV/AIIS cases in China. However, more than 6,000,000 people in China have been infected.
Since 1985, China has discovered 880 patients with AIDS --- 466 of them have died. Sharing needles, complicated sex relations and contaminated(污染的) blood transfusions are major ways for HIV to spread. A lack of education has been the biggest difficulty against nationwide efforts to prevent AIDS, especially in the countryside.
76.The author's purpose in writing the passage is to .
A. show his concern about the health of people
B. make people know about AIDS
C. call on people to fight against AIDS
D. tell us people are short of the knowledge of AIDS
77.The greatest difficulty against the nationwide effort to prevent AIDS lies in .
A. misunderstanding of people B. the shortage of money
C. its infection D. lack of education
78."Since 1985, China has discovered 880 patients with AIDS --- 466 of them had died". Do you know why?
A. Because their families refused to cure them.
B. Because they had been in low spirits for a long time.
C. Because there weren't enough effective measures to treat AIDS.
D. Because they couldn't lead a normal life like other healthy people.
79.It is judged that there are people hit by AIDS in China at present.
A. 22,527 B. over 6,000,000 C. 880 D. over 7,000
(E)
Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
80. ________.
Airplanes are used to carry passengers, cargo and mail. Air transport companies operate scheduled airlines and non-scheduled services over local, regional, national, and international routes. The aircraft operated by these companies range from small single-engine planes to large multiengine jet transports.
81. ________.
The first air passenger services began in 1910, when dirigibles(飞船) began operation between several German cities. The first scheduled airplane service to carry passengers began in the U.S in 1914. Several experimental airmail flights took place in India, Europe, and the United States before World War I, but air transport service did not become a true business until after the war.
82. ________.
During World War Two, intercontinental air transport became firmly established. After the war the new long-distance transports with advanced facilities were increasingly able to avoid storms and strong wind and make flights more economical and consistent. A new generation of "jumbo-jet" transports began operations in 1970, and the supersonic transport entered passenger service in 1976.
83._________.
During the 1970s the number of domestic passengers on U.S airlines increased about 78%, and during the 1980s the figure was up about 58%. In 1990 there were 41.8 million international passengers, the figure was a 75% increase over 1980. The total cargo flown by U.S airlines almost doubled during the 1980s, from 5.7 billion to 10.6 billion ton-miles in 1990.
84. _________.
Major airports provide a wide range of facilities for the convenience of millions of travelers. These range from such basic services as ticket-sales counters and restaurants to luxury hotels, shopping centers and play areas for children. International airports must also have customs areas and currency-exchange counters and so on.

One possible version:
It is known that the Olympic Games 2020 will be held in Beijing. All of the Chinese people feel proud of this event. It will affect the whole nation in many ways.
First, this event will attract more foreign capital into China. Many foreign investment institutions and individuals are looking forward to this opportunity, hoping that they will make a profit investing in China. Take Sydney for example, the Olympics 2000 brings about 4 billion dollars’ worth of profit to the Gross National Product. China, as a nation with great potentialities, ought to earn more. Second, with large numbers of tourists coming to this event, Chinese tourism and service industry will have an opportunity of blooming. To meet the need of foreign guests, China will have to put strength on basic construction and public projects such as traffic facilities and buildings, which, of course, will improve the living conditions of the Chinese people.
Therefore, China should take this opportunity to display the fruits of the modernization construction, letting the world know about modern China, making friends with the outside world. In this sense, the benefit of the Olympics 2020 is ever-lasting.
