13、shall have to wait第三部分 阅读理解AWhat will man be like in the future-in 5000 or even 50,000 years from now? We can only make guesses, of course, but we can be sure that he will be different from what he is today. For man is slowly changing all the time.Let us take an obvious example. Man, even five hundr
14、ed years ago, was shorter than he is today. Now, on average, men are about three inches taller. Five hundred years is relatively short period of time, so we may assume that man will continue to grow taller. Again, in the modern world we use our brains a great deal. Even so, we still make use of only
15、 about 20% of the brain's capacity. As time goes on, however, we shall have to use our brains more and more, and eventually we shall need larger ones! This is likely to bring about a physical change to the head, in particular the forehead, will grow larger.Nowadays our eyes are in constant use.
16、In fact, we use them so much that very often they become weaker and we have to wear glasses. But over very long period of time it is likely thatman's eyes will grow stronger.On the other hand, we tend to make less use of our arms and legs. These, as a result, are likely to grow weaker. At the sa
17、me time, however, our fingers will grow more sensitive because they are used a great deal in modern life.But what about hair? This will probably disappear from the body altogether in course of time because it does not serve a useful purpose any longer. In the future, then, both sexes are likely to b
18、e bald.Perhaps all this gives the impression that future man will not be a very attractive creature to look at! This may well be true. All the same, in spite of all these changes, future man will still have a lot in common with use. He will still be a human being, with thoughts and emotions similar
19、to our own.36. The passage mainly tells us that_.A. man's life will be different in the futureB. future man will look quite different from usC. man is growing taller and uglier as time passesD. man's organs' functions will be one the wane37. What serves as the evidence that man is changi
20、ng?A. Man has got stronger eyes now than he ever had.B. Man's hair is getting thinner and thinner.C. Man's arms and legs have become lighter and weaker.D. Man has been growing taller over the past 500 years.38. The change in man's size of forehead is probably because_A. he makes use only
21、 20 % of the brain's capacity.B. his brain has grown larger over the past centuries.C. the other 80% of his brain will grow in due time.D. he will use his brain more and more as time goes on.39. What is true about a human being in the future?A. He is hairless because hair is no longer useful.B.
22、He has smaller eyes and wears better glasses.C. His fingers grow weaker because he doesn't have to make use of them.D. He thinks and feels in different way.40. It is implied that _.A. human beings will become less attractive in the future.B. less use of a bodily organ may lead to its degeneratio
23、nC. human beings hope for a change in the future lifeD. future life is always predictable.BWith the steady increase in the amount of leisure time that people enjoy today, the importance of businesses that deal with leisure products and services is also steadily increasing. One of the biggest such in
24、dustries is the tourist industry. Providing transportation and accommodations for tourists and guides, brochures, souvenirs is one of the major industries in many countries. Since people are now having longer vacations and are more and more interested in seeing other parts of the world, this busines
25、s will no doubt continue to grow. Another industry obviously devoted to leisure is entertainment. Movies, TV shows, concerts and plays are usuallyintended for our leisure. The same can be said of most books, except textbooks. Professional sports make money because people pay to watch them in their f
26、ree time. This list could be greatly extended. But even among these industries, we have mentioned only part of the picture. The people who make the TV sets and build the theatres and tourist hotels are as much a part of the leisure industry as the singers or the hotel clerks.41. What makes leisure b
27、usiness important according to the passage?A. People's leisure time is increasing.B. More and more people begin to show great interests in seeing other parts of the world.C. Improved transportation and accommodation conditions.D. Longer vacations are offered than before.42. What do we know about
28、 entertainment from the passage?A. It is the biggest leisure industry.B. Movies, TV shows, concerts and books are usually intended for our leisure.C. People are usually reluctant to pay to watch professional sports.D. Making TV sets and building theatres are also part of entertainment industry.43.Wh
29、at's main idea of this passage?A. With people having more leisure time, tourist industry becomes the biggest industry in many countries.B. With people having more leisure time, entertainment industry becomes one of the major industries in many countries.C. With people having more leisure time, l
30、eisure business is becoming more important in economic life.D. With people having more leisure time, leisure business list is being extended.CThirty years ago not many people would have dreamed of doing the repairs and decorations in their own homes. In those days labor was fairly cheap and most peo
31、ple would have thought it worthwhile to employ a professional painter and decorator, unless of course they were either very hand up or were in the trade themselves. Today, however, it is quite a different story. Men and women in all walks of life turn their hands to all sorts of jobs round the house
32、 including painting, papering, putting up shelves and wall units, and tiling walls and floors. Some people with no professional training of any kind have even successfully built their own houses. These jobs have been made easier today by the introduction of prepared materials, which require the mini
33、mum amount of skill to use. In every high street through out Britain nowadays there is at least one Do -it-Yourself shop containing a vast range of timber, tiles, paints, wallpapers and floor coverings besides tools of every description including power drills and many accessories. Do -it-Yourself is
34、 a booming business; all these shops do a roaring trade and look like continuing to do so. Probably the main reason for the craze is the high cost of present-day labor and the shortage of building firms willing to do small jobs.44.Why did people employ professional workers to decorate homes thirty y
35、ears ago?A. Because they could not do it themselves.B. Because professional workers were very cheap.C. Because they had no time.D. Because professional workers could do much better.45.Thirty years later what changes took place?A. People could do everything themselves.B. Few people chose to be a prof
36、essional workerC. People with no professional training successfully built their own houses.D. New expensive materials required no skills at all.46.What caused the DIY craze?A. Young people liked to follow the fashion.B. Do -it-Yourself is a booming business.C. There were fewer building companies.D.
37、High cost of professional workers.47. What is the speaker telling us ?A. How DIY comes into being.B. Changes in building.C. Changes in housing.D. Great changes in these thirty years.DI used to be a faithful TV watcher. Besides the latest information, I 'd love to appreciate beautiful exotic scen
38、eries and enjoy the evening with my favorite singers, actors and hosts. It was the advertisement that frustrated me. Ad is a great annoyance of watching television.In the first place, the ads waste time. Generally speaking, at least 5 or 6 minutes is lost when watching the ads during a single news p
39、rogram, and usually 10 to 15 or even more during a good movie. In the second place, the ads often interrupt the viewer. The viewer may forget the situation of a show because of frequently inserted ads; even worse, the watcher may lose his pleasant mood when the ads come on one after another, which c
40、an bring negative psychological influence such as disappointment, depression, anxiety and so on so forth. Besides, the ads make many products look more appealing than they really are, some of which even look so disgusting. For example, an expensive car is made to seem luxurious, or a bad product lik
41、e deodorant is made to look very good by showing a beautiful amazing lady taking shower! Therefore, the television viewer must be aware and critical of the ad in order to endure them.48.Why the author was one of the TV fans in the past?A. Because he could stay with his favorite stars the whole eveni
42、ng.B. Because he could travel the world without going out.C. Because he could get the news which couldn't be found on newspapers.D. Because he could make friends on TV.49. What feelings may ads bring to the viewers when inserted frequently, according to the author?A. disappointed B. depressed C.
43、 anxious D. unpleasant50.Which statement is not true according to the passage?A. Ads are frustrations during watching TV.B. Ads occupy too much viewer's time when they watch TVC. Ads often cause interruptions which will destroy the viewer's moodD. Ads present the viewer much information abou
44、t the best products.51. What can we infer from the passage?A. Ads time should be reasonably controlled.B. More and more people choose not to watch TV.C. Programs on TV are not worth watching. D. Ads mustn't be showed on TV at all. E McDonald's is the world single biggest food provider with a
45、nnual sales of around $12.4bn. And the company's symbol Ronald McDonald is now (or so the company claims) the word's most recognized person after Santa Claus. The first McDonald's restaurant was opened in San Bernardino, California, in 1948 by brothers Mac and Richard “Dick” McDonald. Ma
46、c ran the restaurant side; Dick was the marketing genius. He had already invented the drive-in laundry and had been the first person to use neon lights in advertising. Now he spotted the gap in the post-war, baby-boom market for cheap, family-orientated restaurants with simple menus, standardized fo
47、od and efficient service. After a slow start, business began to boom. By 1954, the brothers were joined by another entrepreneur, a kitchen equipment salesman called Ray A Kroc who owned the franchise to the Multimixer, milk shake maker used throughout the McDonald's chain. A year later, Kroc had
48、 bought the McDonald brothers' chain of 25 franchises for the equivalent of around $70m (44m) . Dick remained with the company until the Seventies, when he and Kroc fell out over Kroc's claim that the chain was his creation. Today, an almost Stalinist cult of personality surrounds Kroc (who
49、died in 1984) at McDonald's, while the brothers who gave the company its name have all but been written out of its history. But though Kroc did not found McDonald's, he was certainly responsible for the empire-building philosophy which led to its world domination. He ushered in such essentia
50、l contributions to international cuisine as the Big Mac (1968) and the Egg McMuffin (1973); and helped launch Ronald McDonald “in any language he means fun” on to television in 1963. Every three hours, a new McDonald's franchise opens somewhere in the world; it can be found in more than 100 coun
51、tries including India (vegetarian-only to avoid offending the non-beef-eating populace) and Israel (non kosher, despite fierce local objection). McDonald's chain embodied the thrusting, can-do spirit of Fifties America with staff mottoes such as “If you've got time to lean, you've go tim
52、e to clean.” 52. McDonald's was founded _. A. by a kitchen equipment salesman . B. in California. C. by a marketing genius called Dick McDonald. D. after the first World War. 53. What do we know about McDonald's brothers? A. They were not McDonald's founders although they named the resta
53、urant. B. Their business was still in depression after several years. C. They had clear job separation on business. D. They sold their restaurant to a salesman in 1954. 54. Which is not Kroc's contribution to McDonald's ? A. He launched the restaurant image Ronald McDonald on to television.
54、B. Under his lead, international cuisine as the Big Mac and the Egg McMuffin earned worldwide fame C. He spotted the gap in postwar market for cheap, family-orientated restaurants. D. He built McDonald's empire with a philosophy which led to its world domination. 55. Which statement is true acco
55、rding to the passage? A. The single biggest food provider was however, not named after its founder B. The international cuisine as the Big Mac, a beef hamburger, is provided every chain restaurant in the world. C. Employees in McDonald's have no time to lean. D. The symbol Ronald McDonald, means
56、 fun in any language, is said to the word most recognized person after Santa Claus. 56. This passage is mainly concerned with _. A. brief history of McDonald's. B. McDonald's success C. Ray A Kroc, leader of the McDonald's empire. D. McDonald brothers, founder of McDonald's.大 Sussex
