23、g technology could be used to reserve heart attacks. Scientists believe that they may be able to treat heart attack by cloning their healthy heart cells and injecting them into the areas of the heart that have been damaged, and other problems may be solved if human cloning and its technology are not

24、 forbidden.With cloning, infertile couples could have children. Current treatments for infertility, in terms of percentages, are not very successful. Couples go through physical and emotionally painful procedures for a small chance of having children. Many couples run out of time and money without s

25、uccessfully having children. Human cloning could make it possible for many more infertile couples to have children than ever before.We should be able to clone the bone marrow（骨髓） for children and adults suffering from leukemia（白血病）. This is expected to be one of the first benefits to come from cloni

26、ng technology. We may learn how to switch cells on and off through cloning and thus be able to cure cancer.Cloning technology can be used to test for and perhaps cure gene-related diseases.

27、ises unprecedented （前所未有的）advancement in medicine if people will release their fears and let the benefit begin.56.

29、m with the development of human cloning technology is that_.A. it has brought about benefits so farB. it may be out of human controlC. people still know little about itD. people are afraid of such technologyBThe garden city was largely the invention of Ebenezer Howard (1850-1928). After immigrating

30、from England to the USA, and an unsuccessful attempt to make a living as a farmer, he moved to Chicago, where he saw the reconstruction of the city after the disastrous fire of 1871. In those days, it was nicknamed “the Garden City”, almost certainly the source of Howards name for his later building

31、 plan of towns. Returning to London, Howard developed his design in the 1880s and 1890s, drawing on ideas that were popular at the time, but creating a unique combination of designs.The nineteenth-century poor city was in many ways a terrible place, dirty and crowded; but it offered economic and soc

32、ial opportunities. At the same time, the British countryside was in fact equally unattractive: though it promised fresh air and nature, it suffered from agricultural depression (萧条) and it offered neither enough work and wages, nor much social life. Howards idea was to combine the best of town and c

33、ountry in a new kind of settlement, the garden city. Howards idea was that a group of people should set up a company, borrowing money to establish a garden city in the depressed countryside, far enough from existing cities to make sure that the land was bought at the bottom price.Garden cities would

34、 provide a central public open space, radial avenues and connecting industries. They would be surrounded by a much larger area of green belt, also owned by the company, containing not merely farms but also some industrial institutions. As more and more people moved in, the garden city would reach it

35、s planned limit- Howard suggested 32,000 people; then, another would be started a short distance away. Thus, over time, there would develop a vast planned house collection, extending almost without limit; within it, each garden city would offer a wide range of jobs and services, but each would also

36、be connected to the others by a rapid transportation system, thus giving all the economic and social opportunities of a big city.59. How did Howard get the name for his building plan of garden cities?A. Through his observation of the country life.B. Through the combination of different ideas.C. By t

37、aking other peoples advice.D. By using the nickname of the reconstructed Chicago.60. According to Howard, garden cities should be built _.A. as far as possible from existing cities.B. in the countryside where the land was cheap.C. in the countryside where agriculture was developed.D. near cities whe

38、re employment opportunities already existed.61. What can we learn about garden cities from the last paragraph?A. Their number would continue to rise.B. Each one would continue to become largerC. People would live and work in the same place.D. Each one would contain a certain type of business.62. Wha

39、t could be the best title for the passage? A. City and CountrysideB. The Invention of the Garden City C. A New City in ChicagoD. A Famous Garden City in EnglandCGetting rid of dirt, in the opinion of most people, is a good thing. However, there is nothing fixed about attitudes to dirt.In the early 1

40、6th century, people thought that dirt on the skin was a means to block out disease, as medical opinion had it that washing off dirt with hot water could open up the skin and let ills in. A particular danger was thought to lie in public baths. By 1538, the French king had closed the bath houses in hi

41、s kingdom. So did the king of England in 1546. Thus began a long time when the rich and the poor in Europe lived with dirt in a friendly way. Henry IV, king of France, was famously dirty. Upon learning that a nobleman had taken a bath, the king ordered that, to avoid the attack of disease, the noble

42、man should not go out.Though the belief in the merit of dirt was long-lived, dirt has no longer been regarded as a nice neighbor ever since the 18th century. Scientifically speaking, cleaning away dirt is good to health. Clean water supply and hand washing are practical means of preventing disease.

43、Yet, it seems that standards of cleanliness have moved beyond science since World War II. Advertisements repeatedly sell the idea: clothes need to be whiter than white, cloths ever softer, surfaces to shine. Has the hate for dirt, however, gone too far?Attitudes to dirt still differ hugely nowadays.

44、 Many first-time parents nervously try to warn their children off touching dirt, which might be responsible for the spread of disease. On the contrary, Mary Ruebush, an American immunologist (免疫学家)， encourages children to play in the dirt to build up a strong immune system. And the latter position i

45、s gaining some ground.63. The kings of France and England in the 16th century closed bath houses because_.A. they lived healthily in a dirty environmentB. they thought bath houses were too dirty to stay inC. they believed disease could be spread in public bathsD. they considered bathing as the cause

46、 of skin disease64. Which of the following best describes Henry IV s attitude to bathing?A. AfraidB. CuriousC. ApprovingD. Uninterested65. How does the passage mainly develop?A. By providing examples.B. By making comparisons.C. By following the order of time.D. By following the order of importance.6

47、6. What is the authors purpose in writing the passage?A. To stress the role of dirt.B. To introduce the history of dirt.C. To call attention to the danger of dirt.D. To present the change of views on dirt.DDriving a car is not just handling controls and judging speed and distance. It requires you to

48、 predict what other road users will do and get ready to react to something unexpected. When alcohol is consumed, it enters your bloodstream and acts as a depressant (抑制药), damaging eyesight, judgment and co-ordination(协调)，slowing down reaction time and greatly increasing the risk of accidents. Even

49、below the drink driving limit, driving will be affected.Alcohol may take a few minutes to be absorbed into the bloodstream and start action on the brain. Absorption rate is increased when drinking on an empty stomach or when consuming drinks mixed with fruit juice. To get rid of alcohol from the bod

50、y is a very slow process and it is not possible to speed it up with any measures like taking a shower or having a cup of tea or coffee.The present Road Traffic Ordinance states clearly that the limit of alcohol concentration is: 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of blood; or 22 micrograms of alcoho

51、l per 100ml of breath; or 67 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of urine(尿液).Drivers who cause traffic accidents, or who commit a moving traffic offence or are being suspected of drink driving will be tested.Any driver found drinking beyond the limit will be charged. The driver declared guilty may be f

52、ined a maximum of HK $25,000 and be sentenced to up to 3 years in prison and punished for 10 driving-offence points; or temporarily banned from driving.The same punishment applies to failing to provide specimens(样本)for breath, blood or urine tests without good excuse.Drink driving is a criminal offe

53、nce. Be a responsible driver, think before you drink. For the safety of yourself and other road users, never drive after consuming alcohol.67. The first paragraph is mainly about_.A. the introduction of driving skills B. the damage of drinking to your bodyC. the effect of drinking on driving D. the

54、process of alcohol being absorbed68. The underlined Word“ it” in the second paragraph refers to “_ ”.A. alcoholB. absorptionC. bloodD. process69. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage?A. Drinking below the drink driving limit has no effect on driving.B. Alcohol is taken in more qui

55、ckly when drunk with fruit juice.C. Having a cup of tea helps to get rid of alcohol from the body.D. 50 milligrams of alcohol per 100ml of breath is below the drink driving limit.70. A driver suspected of drink driving _.A. should provide specimens for testingB. will be forbidden to drive for 3 year

56、s C. will be punished for 10 driving-offence pointsD. should pay a maximum fine of HK $ 25,000第二节:（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分） Life is beautiful once you learn to change your view a little. 71 .
