It will not be long before Chinese astronauts can ride locally-make spaceships into space,Hu said.The official gave no timerable but said it would happen at the begin

24、ning of the 21st century.The former Soviet Union and the United States have been putting people into orbit since the early 1960s,but other nations have not considered the challenge worth following.China has already built and sent up its own satellites for communications(通讯) and weather forecasting.T

25、he new communication satellites would help to encourage the countrys broadcasting industry,Hu said.But the company,which includes over 130 aerospace agencies,said the lifting ability and success rate of Chinas space-launches were almost equal in quality to those of other countries.China would gradua

26、lly close the distance between its countrys space industry and that of other nations.He added that they were willing to send up commercial satellites for Taiwan.On Chinas plan to send up manned spaceflights,Hu said China had made important development after the successful launch(发射)in November last

27、year of the countrys first experimental spaceship,Shenzhou. The whole project is in the research stage and a lot of work needs to be done, Hu said.

31、 to have a population of about 8 billion (十亿). Most scientists agree that the most severe problem is food supply. Who is going to feed all those people? Where is the food going to come from? Are we going to have enough food? Are we going to produce more artificial(人选的) food?One way of improving the

32、situation is for people to eat less meat. Why? Because it takes 4 kilos(公斤) of grain protein(蛋白质) to produce half a kilo of meat protein. Clearly, there is not going to be sufficient meat protein for 8 billion people. Therefore, it will also necesssary to change eating habits because meat is the mai

33、n part of many peoples food today. A possible solution to this latter problem is the soybean (大豆).The soybean plant produces beans which have a very high fat and protein content. Scientists can now make these look and taste like real meat. They can also make many other artificial products such as so

34、ybean milk, for example, which has a taste of milk and can be used in cooking in very much the same ways as cows milk. In fact, one woman in the United States fed her family only on soybeans for years! She gave them soybean beef, soybean chicken, soybean milk, and sometimes just soybeans. Possibly,

35、we are all going to eat soybeans in the future and finally give up meat completely from our tables.60.What is the main subject of the passage? A. A solution to mans food problem. B. A solution to the population problem. C. Advantages of soybean. D. How to develop good eating habits.61.According to t

36、he passage, meat will completely disappear in the future because .

37、ade from . A. milk B. grain C. protein D. soybeans63.Soybean meat is similar to real meat . A. in appearance but not in taste. B. neither in appearance nor in taste. C. both in appearance and in taste. D. in taste, but not in appearance.CFor years scientists have been worried about the effects of ai

38、r pollution on the earths natural conditions. Some believe the air inside many houses may be more dangerous than the air outside.Most scientists agree that every modern house has some kind of indoor pollution. People began to notice the problem in the early 1970s. When builders began making houses a

39、nd offices, they did not want to waste energy. To do this they built buildings that limited the flow of air between inside and outside. They also used manmade building materials which are now known to let out harmful gases.As the problem became more serious, scientists began searching for a way to d

40、eal with it. They discovered a natural pollution control system for building green plants.Scientists believe that a plants leaves absorb the pollutants (污染物). In exchange the plant lets out oxygen through its leaves. Studies of different plants show that each absorbs different chemicals. So the most

41、 effective way to clean the air is to use different kinds of plants.64. Indoor air pollution may be more dangerous than the air outside mainly because . A. the flow of air indoor is limited B. the building are too high C. people dont want to waste energy D. the building materials are harmful65. Some

42、 kind of indoor pollution can be found in . A. all kinds of officesB. all kinds of houses C. every modern houseD. every old house66. In the last paragraph the word“ absorb” may mean . A. give outB. bring upC. take inD. turn into67. Scientists believe that plants can . A. absorb pollutions and let ou

43、t oxygenB. make your houses more prettier C. absorb all the pollutantsD. change pollutants into oxygen68. According to the last paragraph, we should to clean the air. A. plant all kinds of plantB. have different kinds of plants C. have the same kind of plantD. plant more trees.DBeauty has always bee

44、n regarded as something praiseworthy.Almost everyone thinks attractive people are happier and healthier,have better marriage and have more respectable jobs.Personal advisors give them better advice for finding jobs.Even judges are softer on attractive defendants.But in the executive(主管的)circle,beaut

45、y can become a liability.While attractiveness is a positive factor for a man on his way up the executive ladder,it is harmful to a woman.Handsome male executives were considered having more honesty than plainer men;effort and ability were thought to lead to their success.Attractive female executives

46、 were considered to have less honesty than unattractive ones;their success was connected not with ability but with factors such as luck.All unattractive women executives were thought to have more honesty and to be more capable than the attractive female executives.Interestingly,though,the rise of th

47、e unattractive overnight successes was connected more to personal relationships and less to ability than that the attractive overnight successes.Why are attractive women not thought to be able?An attractive woman who is considered to be more feminine(女子气的)has an advantage in traditionally female job

48、s,but an attractive woman in a traditionally manly position appears to lack the manly qualities required.This is true even in politics. When the only clue(线索) is how he or she looks,people treat men and women differently,says Anne Bowman,who recently published a study on the effects of attractivenes

49、s on political candidates(候选人).She asked 125 undergraduate students to rank two groups of photographs,one of men and one of women,in order of attractiveness.The students were told the photographs were of candidates for political offices.They were asked to rank them again,in order they would vote for

50、 them.The results showed that attractive males completely defeated unattractive men,but the women who had ranked most attractive unchangeably received the fewest votes.69.The word liability most probably means_.A.disadvantage B.advantage C.misfortune D.trouble70.In traditionally female jobs,attracti

51、veness_.A.makes women look more honest and capableB.strengthens the feminine qualities requiredC.is of great importance to womenD.often enables women to succeed quickly71.Bowmans experiment shows that when it comes to politics,attractiveness_.A.turns out to be a disadvantage to men B.is more of a di

52、sadvantage than an advantage to womenC.affects men and women alikeD.has as little effect on men as on women72.The author writes this passage to_.A.give advice to job-seekers who are attractiveB.discuss the disadvantages of being attractiveC.demand equal rights for womenD.stats the importance of appe

53、aranceE1970 was World Conservation (自然保护) Year. The United Nations wanted everyone to know that the world is in danger. They hoped that governments would act quickly in order to “conserve”nature. Here is one example of the problem. At one time there were 1, 300 different plants, trees and flowers in

54、 Holland, but now only 866 remain. The others have been destroyed by modern man and his technology. We are changing the earth, the air and water, and everything that grows and lives. We cant live without these things. If we continue like this, we shall destroy ourselves.What will happen in the future? Perhaps it is more important to ask“What must we do now?”The people who will be living in the world of tomorrow are the young of toda
