To build power plants near the places where natural gas is found in large quantities, it is neceary to open huge new gas fields and construct the infrastructure(基础设施)required for large-scale production.Many thousands of miles of power lines must be put up to transmit electricity to centers of consumer demand.On the other hand, if the power plants are built near the centers of consumer demand, in order for them to burn gas, it is also neceary to build thousands of miles of pipelines to supply the fuel.Such pipelines can easily cost several million dollars per mile.Large coal mines, in contrast, are more widely spread and closer to most demand centers than natural gas fields.Increasing the supply of coal is poible by using the existing railroad system without constructing major new lines, although modifications(改建)must be made to smoothly handle the increased traffic.Such a consideration provides coal an advantage over natural gas in most cases.Although coal is available at a comparatively lower and more stable price than natural gas, constructing a coal-fired power plant is much more expensive than one fueled by natural gas.Therefore, how to fuel a new electric power plant is still a fundamental iue for discuion.36.What is the paage mainly about? A)Where to build new power plants.B)What fuel to use for new power plants.C)Advantages of power plants fueled by coal.D)Advantages of power plants fueled by natural gas.37.To construct a power plant where there is a large amount of natural gas, people need to do all the following EXCEPT ______.A)opening huge new gas fields B)building infrastructures C)building thousands of miles of pipelines D)building power lines to transmit electricity 38.The phrase “the increased traffic”(Paragraph 2)refers to the increase of transportation of _______.A)pipes

B)coal

C)natural gas

D)building materials 39.Compared with a power plant fueled by natural gas, a coal-fueled power plant _____.A)requires no modifications of the railway system B)is farther away from consumer demand centers C)uses a fuel supplied at a higher price D)costs more money in its construction 40.What can be learned from the last paragraph of this paage? A)The choice of fuel for new power plants is yet to be made.B)Natural gas is a better fuel for new power plants.C)Coal is a better fuel for new power plants.D)It makes no difference to use either fuel for new power plants Paage Two In almost every urban are, the city is warmer than its immediately surrounding suburban and rural areas.Do the cities themselves generate enough heat to raise the temperature evidently? Is there something about cities that allow them to hold heat? The heat generated by buildings, factories, vehicles, lighting, and other products of modern technology is enough to raise the temperature a degree or two in densely populated(人口稠密的)cities.The hot air blown out by air conditioners(空调机)during summer months affects the temperature outside as surely, if le considerably, as they affect the temperature inside an air-conditioned room.But even if cities did not generate their own heat, they would still be warmer than rural or suburban areas.When the sun shines on the flat countryside, the light is reflected back to the sky.When the sun shines in a city, the light bounces(弹回)from building to building like a Ping-Pong ball—more of the sun’s warmth is absorbed in the city.In fact, buildings and cement streets can hold more heat and more sunlight than gra, trees, or the fields in the country.It is commonly aumed that air pollution is what makes cities warmer.Since dust particles can absorb radiation, the theory goes, the more polluted the city, the higher the temperature is artificially raised.41.The word “immediately” in the first sentence most probably means _____.A)at once

B)directly

C)closely

D)right away 42.The answer to the second question in the first paragraph is given in _____.A)paragraphs 3 and 4

C)paragraphs 2 and 4

B)Paragraphs 2 and 3

D)the last 3 paragraphs 43.Each of the following generates heat in cities EXCEPT _______.A)air conditioners

B)dust particles

C)vehicles

D)factories 44.When the sunlight bounces from building to building in the city, ______.A)air pollution is thus produces

B)the light is reflected back to the sky

C)heat is generated by the buildings D)the temperature is surely raised 45.Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the paage? A)Buildings in cities can generate and hold heat.B)Gra, trees and farm fields hold more heat.C)Dust particles can generate radiation.D)There is more sunlight in cities than in their suburbs.Paage Three

Genetic(基因的)difference between bees in a bee group have been thought to be very small and unimportant.Scientists have thought that the work of each bee is determined by the way the bee is brought up and fed.Now these beliefs have been proved to be mistaken.Two groups of American scientists have shown independently that most of the complex behavior of bees is not the result of upbringing(养育)after all.It is inherited(遗传的).Both teams of scientists were surprised by their findings.The question of how different genes make different bees do different jobs is, however, so far unanswered.The findings provide a big puzzle for biologists studying evolution.Bees are among the most co-operative of all insects.This had been explained by a theory of “the selfish gene”.According to this theory, all bees have very similar genes and their co-operative behavior promotes the spread of these genes.From this it would follow that genetic variety should reduce co-operation.Now it seems the opposite is true.The scientists are fairly confident that their findings will turn out to apply to other social insects, for example, ants as well as bees.46.The two groups of American scientists have shown that different bees do different jobs because they ______.A)are brought up in different ways

B)eat different food

C)undergo different stages of evolution

D)have different genes 47.What was once thought to be important in determining a bee’s behavior?

A)Social activities.B)Upbringing.C)Different jobs.D)Genes.48.Up to now scientists cannot explain _____.A)why bees are social insects B)why bees have complex behavior C)how genes control bees’ behavior D)how their findings apply to social insects 49.The biologists studying evolution are puzzled by ______.A)genetic differences between bees

C)co-operative behavior of bees

B)similar genes shared by bees

D)work division among bees 50.The word “follow” in Line 4, Paragraph 2 could be replaced by ______.A)go behind

B)go on

C)be safe

D)be true

Paage Four

The prices of raw materials and produce change every day, so offers are usually only firm for about twenty-four hours.The prices of manufactured goods, on the other hand, remain unchanged, as a rule, for weeks or months, so buyers can place orders on the basis of a manufacture’s printed price list.There are many ways of selling manufactured goods to foreign buyers.A manufacturer may maintain his own traveling representatives, or set up his own offices or companies abroad.Alternatively he may sell to an export house;in this case there is little financial risk for the producer, since the merchant acts as a buyer and pays for the goods himself.A third poibility is for the manufacturer to appoint foreign agents, who will work on commiion.In this case goods may be sent unsold, and the agent is expected to obtain the best price available;but this practice is more common with produce exports.A firm order is often called an indent（订货单），and there is a special type of commiion agent called an indent house.A buyer either places a closed indent, which names the supplier, or an open indent, which leaves the choice of supplier to the agent.The indent agent usually takes a commiion on the value of his purchase.51.It can be inferred from the paage that the price for an order of TV sets may be set according to ______.A)the manufacturer’s printed price list C)the value of the row materials B)a rule that remains unchanged

D)daily changes of prices 52.How many ways of selling manufactured goods are mentioned in the paage?

A)Five.B)Four.C)Three

D)Two 53.An appointed foreign agent makes money by _____.A)obtaining the best prices

C)buying low and selling high

C)find the name of the supplier

B)supply the needed goods

D)find a supplier to order the goods 55.This paage mainly tells us about ______.A)foreign agents

C)open indents B)Exporting practice

D)Changing prices
