Passage Two Modern humans emerged some 250,000 years ago, yet agriculture is a fairly
recent invention, only about 10,000 years old. Many crop plants are rather new additions to our diet: broccoli (a flowering mutant of kale) is thought to be only 500 years old. Most innovation is far more recent still. Although Austrian monk Gregor Mendel's pea plant experiments quietly laid the basic foundations of genetics in the mid-19th century, his work was rediscovered and applied to crop breeding only at the beginning of the 20th century. Further advances have steadily accumulated. The 1940s saw the identification of DNA as genetic material and the adoption, by commercial breeders, of genetic modification - typically by applying chemicals or radiation to DNA to try to make plants with advantageous characteristics. The modifications ultimately led to the green revolution of the 1960s and 1970s, during which time global wheat yields tripled. The 1980s and 1990s saw the commercial adoption of agricultural biotechnology, which has allowed breeders to introduce specific genes into crops from the same or different species. In 2004 the first plant genome was fully sequenced, and since then the number of plant gene sequences in GenBank, the public repository for gene sequence information, has been doubling every two years. Our knowledge is increasing exponentially, as it has been in other fields such as semiconductors and cellular telephony. Our challenge is to increase agricultural yields while decreasing the use of fertilizer, water, fossil fuels and other negative environmental inputs. Embracing human ingenuity and innovation seems the most likely path. Plants did not evolve to serve humans, and their sets of genes are incomplete for our purposes. The integral role of modifying genes is obvious to all breeders, though sometimes painfully absent from the public's understanding of how modern agriculture succeeds. All breeding techniques, from before Mendel's time until today, exploit modifications to plant DNA. These modifications can take the form. of mistakes or mutations that occur during natural cell division in the wild; the natural but random movement of DNA sequences from one part of a plant's genome to another; or the more precise insertion of known gene sequences using biotechnology. In all these cases, plant genes are moved within or across species, creating novel combinations. Hybrid genetics - the combination of different versions of the same gene – has resulted in spectacular yield increases. Largely as the consequence of using hybrid seed varieties, corn yields in the U.S. have increased more than 500 percent in the past 70 years. Questions 6-10 are based on Passage Two.

(1)Which statement is correct according to paragraph one?

A、Broccoli was first bred by Mendel

B、Broccoli wasn’t considered edible until 500 years ago

C、Mendel's work was considered most important in the history of genetics

D、Mendel’s study found its major application some 100 years ago

(2)What was cited as a result of the green revolution?

A、Sharp rise in worldwide wheat production

B、Extensive use of organic fertilizer

C、Large-scale adoption of genetic modification

D、Commercial success of genetically modified seeds.

(3)Which statement is true of GenBank according to the passage?

A、The number of gene sequences has doubled since its foundation

B、The commercial breeders are its main sponsors

C、It is a genetic sequence database

D、It was founded in 2004

(4)It can be learned from the passage that the significance of genetic modification is ______.

A、questioned by some critics

B、poorly conveyed to the public

C、appreciated by all breeders

D、fully understood only by scientists

(5)The word “novel” in paragraph three is closest in meaning to ______.

A、artificial

B、various

C、hybrid

D、new

Temporary Employment Some observers have attributed the dramatic growth in temporary emplo

Temporary Employment

Some observers have attributed the dramatic growth in temporary employment that occurred in the United States during the 1980's to increased participation in the workforce by certain groups, such as first time or reentering workers, who supposedly prefer such arrangements. However, statistical analyses reveal that demo- graphic changes in the workforce did not correlate with variations in the total number of temporary workers. Instead, these analyses suggest that factors affecting employers account for the rise in temporary employment. One factor is product demand; temporary employment is favored by employers who are adapting to fluctuating demand for products while at the same time seeking to reduce overall labor costs. Another factor is labor's reduced bargaining strength, which allows employers more control over the terms of employment. Given the analyses, which reveal that growth in temporary employment now far exceeds the level explainable by recent workforce entry rates of groups said to prefer temporary jobs, firms should be discouraged from creating excessive numbers of temporary positions. Government policymakers should consider mandating benefit coverage for temporary employees, promoting pay equity between temporary and permanent workers, assisting labor unions in organizing temporary workers, and encouraging firms to assign temporary jobs primarily to employees who explicitly indicate that preference.

The first sentence in the passage suggests that the observers mentioned in line 1 would be most likely to predict which of the followings?

A.That the total number of temporary positions would increase as fewer workers were able to find permanent positions.

B.That employers would have less control over the terms of workers' employment as workers increased their bargaining strength.

C.That more workers would be hired for temporary positions as product demand increased.

D.That the number of workers taking temporary positions would increase as more workers in any given demographic group entered the workforce.

Passage Two Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage. Every other week it

Passage Two Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.

Every other week it seems a new study comes out that adds to our already-formidable store of parental worries. But even by those upgraded standards, the report issued last week by the federal government’s National Center for Health Statistics contained a jaw-dropper: the parents of nearly one of every five boys in the United States were concerned enough about what they saw as their son’s emotional or behavioral problems that they consulted a doctor or a health-care professional. By comparison, about one out of 10 parents of girls reported these kinds of problems.

The report confirms what many of us have been observing for some time now that lots of school-age boys are struggling. And, parents are intensely worried about them.

What is bothering our sons? Some experts suggest we are witnessing an epidemic of ADHD and say boys need more treatment. Others say that environmental pollutants found in plastics, among other things, may be eroding their attention spans and their ability to regulate their emotions.

Those experts may be right but I have another suggestion. Let's examine the way our child rearing and our schools have evolved in the last10 years. Then ask ourselves this challenging question: could some of those changes we have embraced in our families, our communities and our schools be driving our sons crazy?

Instead of unstructured free play, parents now schedule their kids' time from dawn till dusk (and sometimes beyond). By age 4, an ever-increasing number of children are enrolled in preschool. There, Instead of learning to get along with other kids, hold crayon (蜡笔) and play Duck, Duck, Goose, children barely out of diapers are asked to fill out work sheets, learn calculation or study Mandarin. The drumbeat (鼓声) early academics gets even louder when they enter" real" school. Veteran teachers will tell you that first graders are now routinely expected to master a curriculum that, only 15 years ago, would have been considered appropriate for second, even third graders. The way we teach children has changed, too. In many communities, elementary schools have become test-prep factories---where standardized testing begins in kindergarten and" teaching to the test" is considered a virtue. At the same time, recess (休息时间) is being pushed aside in order to provide extra time for reading and math drills. So is history and opportunities for hands-on activities---like science labs and art. Active play is increasingly frowned on---some schools have even banned recess and tag. In the wake of school shootings like the tragedy at Virginia Tech, kids who stretch out a pointer finger, bend their thumb and shout" pow! "are regarded with suspicion and not a little fear.

第57题:What are many American parents concerned about according to the first paragraph?

A) Their children's health problems.

B) Their children's emotional and behavioral problems.

C) The report issued by National Center for Health Statistics.

D) The studies that come out every other week.

Shakespeare’s life time was coincident with a period of extraordinary activity andachievem
ent in the drama (46) By the date of his birth Europe was witnessing the passing of thereligious drama, and the creation of new forms under the incentive of classical tragedy andcomedy. These new forms were at first mainly written by scholars and performed by amateurs,but in England, as everywhere else in western Europe, the growth of a class of professionalactors was threatening to make the drama popular, whether it should be new or old, classicalor medieval, literary or farcical Court, school organizations of amateurs, and the travelingactors were all rivals in supplying a widespread desire for dramatic entertainment;

and (47)no boy who went a grammar school could be ignorant that the drama was a form. of literaturewhich gave glory to Greece and Rome and might yet bring honor to England. When Shakespeare was twelve years old, the first public playhouse was built in London For a time literature showed no interest in this public stage Plays aiming at literary distinctionwere written for school or court, or for the choir boys of St Paul’s and the royal chapel, who,however,

gave plays in public as well as at court (48)but the professional companies prosperedin their permanent theaters, and university men with literature ambitions were quick to turn to these theaters as offering a means of livelihood. By the time Shakespeare was twenty-five, Lyly,Peele, and Greene had made comedies that were at once popular and literary;

Kyd had writtena tragedy that crowded the pit; and Marlowe had brought poetry and genius to triumph on thecommon stage - where they had played no part since the death of Euripides (49)A nativeliterary drama had been created, its alliance with the public playhouses established, and atleast some of its great traditions had been begun . The development of the Elizabethan drama for the next twenty-five years is of exceptionalinterest to students of literary history, for in this brief period we may trace the beginning,growth, blossoming, and decay of many kinds of plays, and of many great careers We areamazed today at the mere number of plays produced, as well as by the number of dramatistswriting at the same time for this London of two hundred thousand inhabitants.

(50)To realizehow great was the dramatic activity, we must remember further that hosts of plays have beenlost, and that probably there is no author of note whose entire work has survived.

第9题

The Westlife story really began way back in December 1996 when the three original members
of Westlife were performing in a local production of the musical Grease. Shane Filan, Klan Egan and Mark Feehilly were all born and bred in Sligo, a small town a few hours west of the Republic of Ireland’s capital city, Dublin. During breaks the three would get together and sing covers of some of their favorite songs including Boyz Ⅱ Men’s I Make Love To You. The reaction to their singing was so positive that they decided to form. a band as soon as they had finished their exams at school. This they duly did and on July 3 1997 they formed I.O.U.

The boys organized concerts in the area and even produced their own CDs to sell locally. This local success led to an appearance on TV that was to prove extremely important. Among the viewers who saw the trio perform. in a children’s hospital was Boyzone’s manager, Louis Walsh. Soon after Shane’s mother contacted him about I.O.U. and found he had been desperately trying to get in contact with them.

Louis Walsh decided to hold auditions to recruit two new members in Jude of 1998. This is when Nicky Byme and Bryan McFadden, two Dublin boys and friends entered the picture. A quick name change and Westside was born. Yes, WESTSIDE. This was to be the quintet’s name until they discovered another band already using the name and a final change to Westlife was called for, The final link in the chain was Ronan Keating, Boyzone’s lead singer, who at Louis Walsh’s request joined him to help and nurtured this raw talent. His experience proved an invaluable help.

The next step was to secure a record deal. The band organized a showcase in Dublin and soon reprentatives of every, major record label were offering the bewildered boys contracts. In October 1998 Westlife signed to RCA, a label that had a proven track record with the successful marketing of both Take That and Five,

Barely had the ink on the contract dried when they headed out on tour as part of the Smash Hits Show, which led to them winning the Best New Tour Act in December 1998 (this was an award Boyzone themselves had won in 1994 which seemed like a pretty good omen).

Styled by Kenny Ho, who was responsible for The Spice Girls image, Westlffe’s first single Swear It Again was released in March 1999. In their native Ireland it went straight to number one and became the biggest selling debut single in the history of the Irish charts. A month later Swear It Again repeated the feat in the UK, staying at number one for two weeks and following on from Boyzone’s dominance of the UK top spot. This success was soon matched all around Europe, Asia, Australia and New Zealand. They look set to repeat their success now in the USA. A tour throughout the States has meant Swear It Again is rapidly climbing the Billboard charts. This is the good news the boys needed as Bryan McFadden recently suffered nervous exhaustion and had to miss some shows while recuperating back in Ireland with his family, blot only that but Ronan Keating’s solo plans have forced him to give up his co-managing duties due to lack of time. More good news, though, is they have recently recorded with Mariah Carey and are due to begin work on their second album.

Before the I.O.U. was formed, its members were

A.neighbors.

B.classmates.

C.co-performers.

D.playmates.

第11题

Publicity offers several benefits. There are not costs for message time or space. An ad in
prime-time television may cost $250,000 to $5,000,000 or more per minute, whereas a fiveminute report on a network newscast would not cost anything. However, there are costs for news releases, a publicity department, and other items. As with advertising, publicity reaches a mass audience. Within a short time, new products or company policies are widely known.

Credibility about messages is high, because they are reported in independent media. A newspaper review of a movie has more believability than an ad in the same paper, because the reader associates independence with objectivity. Similarly, people are more likely to pay attention to news reports than to ads. For example, Women's Wear Daily has both fashion reports and advertisements. Readers spend time reading the stories, but they flip through the ads. Furthermore, there may be 10 commercials during a half-hour television program or hundreds of ads in a magazine. Feature stories are much fewer in number and stand out clearly.

Publicity also has some significant limitations. A firm has little control over messages, their timing, their placement, or their coverage by a given medium. It may issue detailed news releases and find only portions cited by the media, and media have the ability to be much more critical than a company would like.

A firm may want publicity during certain periods, such as when a new product is introduced or new store opened, but the media may not cover the introduction or opening until after the time it would aid the firm. Similarly, media determine the placement of a story; it may follow a report on crime or sports. Finally, the media ascertain whether to cover a story at all and the amount of coverage to be devoted to it.

An advertisement in prime-time television ______.

A.may cost nothing

B.is less expensive than a five-minute report on a network newscast

C.can make only a few people know the new products or company policies within a short time

D.may cost $250,000 or more each minute
