a. 2. b.3. c. 4. d.5.57.from the passage, we can know that_. a.lead is a necessary part of almost all paint b.a safe level of lead can be found sooner or later c.much has been done to deal with the problem of lead poisoning d.paints imported from india in 2006 didnt reach the safety standard58.waht can we learn about mr.clark and his research team? a.they have won the battle against the problem of lead poisoning. b.they managed to lower the limit to ninety parts per million. c.they are very concerned about the problem of lead poisoning. d.they suggest stopping producing lead-based paints in most countries.59.what can we learn about lead according to the passage?a.it is used to improve color of paint used in homes and other buildings and on steel structures.b.it can be found in some commonly imported consumer products in other countries.c.paint exposure has already poisoned millions of children in hunan province, china.d.paint with it does not necessarily contribute to lead poisoning if dealt with properly.60.whats the passage mainly about?a.dangerous lead-based paint being common around asia.b.urgent need for worldwide research on lead-based paint.c.lead pain exposure remains serious global health threat.d.lead-based paint remains a dangerous threat to children.bdespiteitsmurderousfame,quicksand(流沙)doesnotsuckpeopleunder and swallow them,although it can hold a person tightly. the human body is much lighter inquicksandthan in water,and sooner or later anyone trapped in it will float. but escaping alive is another matter.quicksandis a mixture of fine sand and mud that has become oversaturated(过饱和的) by water from an underground source. it looks solid,but behaves more like a liquid because water makes it much looser between the sand grains.unlike most liquids,quicksands viscosity (黏性系数) can suddenly change if it comes under pressure,for example under a human foot. the surface gives way and the victim quickly sinks in up to the knees,surrounded by an area of dirty things that turns semi-solid arounditsvictim. escaping from thequicksands control requires a large amount of force. without something solid to pull at,peopleoften find they are stuck fast. pulling at one leg simply makes the other one sink further.so how do you escape fromquicksands control? stay still and call for help. staying still stops you sinking any further,until-with luck-help arrives on the scene. if no one appears and you need to draw yourself out,gently lie down on your back until your body is floating on the sand. next,roll over onto your stomach and pull yourself forwards with your hands,so that you gradually “swim” towards firmer ground. it is a slow and dirty business,but it works.this technique has onedrawback: it goes against a very powerful human instinct (本能). faced with danger out in the open,nine out of tenpeoplestay on their feet,hoping that they can run away. for someone who is stuck in mud or sand,this can make a bad situation worse,particularly if it is a cold winters night,with the dark tide rising,thousands of miles from home.61. according to the passage,the best way to escape fromquicksandis to _. a. makes every effort to walk out of it b. try to swim out as quickly as in water c. wait for the chance to run out slowly d. roll yourself out step by step patiently62. the underlined word “drawback” in the last paragraph is closest in meaning to “ _”. a. disadvantageb.secretc. powerd. requirement63. what can we know from the passage? a.quicksandis generally thoughtnotto be dangerous b. human body is heavier inquicksandthan in water c.quicksandcansuckpeopleand then hold them tightly d. the more someone struggles,the further he sinks inquicksand64. what isnotdiscussed in the passage? a. the property ofquicksand.b. wherequicksandexists most c. whatquicksandis made of. d. how to escape fromquicksand.65. which magazine is this passage probably taken from? a.entertainment weeklyb.newsweek c.national geographicd.better homes & gardenscwhy does most of the world travel on the right side today? theories differ, but theres no doubt that napoleon was a major influence. the french had used the right since at least the late 18th century. some say that before the french revolution, noblemen drove their carriages on the left, forcing the peasants to the right. regardless of the origin, napoleon brought right-hand traffic to the nations he conquered, including russia, switzerland and germany. hitler, in turn, ordered right-hand traffic in czechoslovakia and austria in the 1930s. nations that escaped right-hand control, like great britain, followed their left-hand tradition.the u.s. has not always been a nation of right-hand rivers; earlier in its history, carriage and horse traffic traveled on the left, as it did in england. but by the late 1700s, people driving large wagons pulled by several pairs of horses began promoting a shift(改变) to the right. a driver would sit on the rear (后面的) left horse in order to wave his whip（鞭子） with his right hand; to see opposite traffic clearly, they traveled on the right.one of the final moves to firmly standardize traffic directions in the u.s. occurred in the 20th century, when henry ford decided to mass-produce his cars with controls on the left (one reason, stated in 1908; the convenience for passengers exiting directly onto the edge, especially if there is a lady to be considered). once these rules were set, many countries eventually adjusted to the right-hand standard, including canada in the 1920s, sweden in 1967 and burma in 1970. the u.k. and former colonies such as australia and india are among the western worlds few remaining holdouts（坚持不变者）. several asian countries, including japan, use the left as well thought many places use both right-hand-drive and left-hand-drive cars.66. why did people in switzerland travel on the right? a. they had used the right-hand since the 18th century. b. rich people enjoyed driving their carriages on the right. c. napoleon introduced the right-hand traffic to this country. d. hitler ordered them to go to against their left-hand tradition.67. of all the countries below, the one that travels on the right is _. a. australia b. england c. japan d. austria68. henry ford produced cars with controls on the left _. a. in order to change traffic directions in the u.s. b. so that passengers could get off conveniently c. because rules at that time werent perfect d. though many countries were strongly against that 69. according to the passage, which of the following is true? a. before the french revolution, all the french people used the right. b. people in britain and the u.s. travel on the same side nowadays. c. the burmese began to travel on the right in 1970. d. all the asian nations use the left at present.70. what would be the best title for this passage? a. who made the great contributions to the shift of traffic directions? b. how cars have become a popular means of transportation? c. how henry ford produced his cars with controls on the left? d. why dont people all drive on the same side of the road?dthe price of gold in the international market has increased manifolds(很多地) over the l
