He became a lecturer in 1970 and has been professor of horticulture since 1982. Dr. Higa is famous for creating EM technology. He cre

26、ated EM technology in order to address the problem of excess wastes and bad farming techniques in the present-day world. EM stands for effective microorganisms. It is a multi-culture of coexisting anaerobic and aerobic microorganisms. Microorganisms are the smallest complete units of life. They can

27、exist independent of a bigger organism. Bacteria are considered microorganisms. They are constantly at work, some helping bigger organisms, and others bringing decay and bad health. These opposing processes of constructive and destructive forces are always ongoing, creating a balance. If the balance

28、 tips towards the destructive side, the host organism grows ill. If it tips towards the constructive side, the organism experiences good health. 高三英语试卷第 6 页 （共 12 页） These organisms can be used in farming to create a good growing environment for all kinds of crops and animals. The process involves c

29、ollecting human and animal waste products such as kitchen garbage and manure. This is then sealed into a barrel along with a certain amount of EM powder. The microorganisms then turn the waste into mulch, which acts as a great source of nutrients for crops and animals. Rice paddies that are treated

30、with EM produce harvests that are much bigger than those of conventional farms. Moreover, EM rice paddies require less tilling and weeding than other paddies. Dr. Teruo Higas ideas have caught on around the world. One of his biggest successes was in North Korea, where his technology was used to crea

34、arvest. 44. What does the underlined word “impoverished” mean in English? A. Rich.B. Poor.C. Far away.D. Large. C There is no denying that students should learn something about how computers work, just as we expect them at least to understand that the internal-combustion engine( 内 燃 机内 燃 机 )has some

35、thing to do with burning fuel, expanding gases and pistons (活塞活塞)being driven. For people 高三英语试卷第 7 页 （共 12 页） should have some basic idea of how the things that they use do what they do. Further, students might be helped by a course that considers the computers impact on society. But that is not wh

36、at is meant by computer literacy. For computer literacy is not a form of literacy (读写能力读写能力); it is a trade skill that should not be taught as a liberal art. Learning how to use a computer and learning how to program one are two distinct activities. A case might be made that the competent citizens o

37、f tomorrow should free themselves from their fear of computers. But this is quite different from saying that all ought to know how to program one. Leave that to people who have chosen programming as a career. While programming can be lots of fun, and while our society needs some people who are exper

38、ts at it, the same is true of auto repair and violin-making. Learning how to use a computer is not that difficult, and it gets easier all the time as programs become more “user-friendly”. Let us assume that in the future everyone is going to have to know how to use a computer to be a competent citiz

39、en. What does the phrase learning to use a computer mean? It sounds like “learning to drive a car, that is, it sounds as if there is some set of definite skills that, once acquired, enable one to use a computer. In fact, learning to use a computer is much more like “learning to play a game”, but lea

40、rning the rules of one game may not help you play a second game, whose rules may not be the same. There is no such a thing as teaching someone how to use a computer. One can only teach people to use this or that program and generally that is easily accomplished. 45. To be the competent citizens of t

41、omorrow, people should _. A. try to lay a solid foundation in computer science B. be aware of how the things that they use do what they do C. learn to use a computer by acquiring a certain set of skills D. understand that programming a computer is more essential than repairing a car 46. In Para2 “au

42、to repair” and “violin-making” are mentioned to show that _. 高三英语试卷第 8 页 （共 12 页） A. programming a computer is as interesting as making a violin B. people who can use a computer dont necessarily have to know computer programming C. violin making requires as much skill as computer programming D. our

43、society needs experts in different fields 47. Learning to use a computer is getting easier all the time because _. A. programs are designed to be convenient to users B. programs are becoming less complicated C. programming is becoming easier and easier D. programs are becoming readily available to c

44、omputer users 48. According to the author, the phrase “learning to use a computer” in Para.3 means learning _. A. a set of rulesB. the fundamentals of computer science C. specific programsD. general principles of programming 49. The authors purpose in writing this passage is _. A. to stress the impa

45、ct of the computer on society B. to emphasize that computer programming is an interesting and challenging job C. to illustrate the requirements for being competent citizens of tomorrow D. to explain the concept of computer literacy D An introduction to this book is as superfluous as a candle in fron

46、t of a powerful searchlight. But a convention of publishing seems to require that the candle should be there, and I am proud to be the one to hold it. About ten years ago I picked up from the pile of new books on my desk a copy of Sons and Lovers by a man of whom I had never heard, and I started to

47、race through it with the immoral speed of the professional reviewer. But after a page or two I found myself reading, really reading. Here was here is a masterpiece in which every sentence counts, a book packed with significant thought and beautiful, arresting phrases, the work of a remarkable genius

48、 whose gifts are more richly various than those of any other young English novelist. 高三英语试卷第 9 页 （共 12 页） To appreciate the rich variety of Mr. Lawrence we must read his later novels and his volumes of poetry. But Sons and Lovers reveals the range of his typical power. Here are combined and blended

49、(混合的混合的) sort of “realism” and almost lyric (抒情的抒情的) imagery and rhythm. The speech of the people is that of daily life and the things that happen to them are normal adventures and accidents; they fall in love, marry, work, fail, succeed, and die. But of their deeper emotions and of the relations of

50、 these little human beings to the earth and to the stars, Mr. Lawrence makes something near to poetry and prose (散文散文) without violating its proper “other harmony” Take the marvelous paragraph on next to the last page of Sons and Lovers (Mr. Lawrence depends so little on plot in the ordinary sense o

51、f the word that it is perfectly fair to read the end of his book first)： Where was he? One tiny upright speck of flesh, less than an ear of wheat lost in the field. He could not bear it. On every side the immense dark silence seemed pressing him, so tiny a spark, into extinction, and yet, almost not

52、hing, he could not be extinct. Night, in which everything was lost, went reaching out, beyond stars and sun, stars and sun, a few bright grains, went spinning round for terror, and holding each other in embrace, there in the darkness that out passed them all, and left them tiny and daunted (气馁气馁). S

53、o much, and himself, infinitesimal, at the core a nothingness, and yet not nothing. Such glorious writing lifts the book far above a novel which is merely a story. I beg the reader to attend to every line of it and not to miss a single one of the many sentences that await and surprise you. Some are

54、enthusiastic and impressive, like the paragraph above; others are keen, “realistic” observations of things and people. In one of his books Mr. Lawrence makes a character say, or think, that life is “mixed”. That indicates his philosophy and his method. He blends the accurately literal and trivial (琐

55、碎的琐碎的) with the extremely poetic. To find a similar blending of tiny daily detail and wide imaginative vision, we must go back to two older novelists, Hardy and Meredith. I do not mean that Mr. Lawrence derives (源源 于于) directly from them or, indeed, that he is clearly the disciple (弟子弟子) of any mast

56、er. I do feel simply that he is of the elder stature (名望名望) of Hardy and Meredith, and I know of no other young novelist who is quite worthy of their company. When I first tried to express this comparison, this connection, I was contradicted by a fellow critic, who pointed out that Meredith and Hard

57、y are entirely unlike each other and that therefore Mr. Lawrence cannot 高三英语试卷第 10 页 （共 12 页） resemble both. To be sure, nothing is more hateful than forced comparisons, nothing more boring than to discover parallels between one work of art and another. An artists mastery consists in his difference

58、from other masters. But to refer a young man of genius to an older one, at the same time pronouncing his independence and originality, is a fair, if not very superior, method of praising him. 50. The underlined word “superfluous” in Paragraph 1 is closest in meaning to _. A. meaningfulB. unnecessary

59、C. fundamentalD. fashionable 51. What is typical of Lawrences works? A. They equally reveal his genius power. B. They contain lots of great lyric poetry. C. They present some real living situations. D. They focus on relations between humans. 52. What does the author want to illustrate by including one paragraph from Sons and Lovers? A. The plot of the novel has little to do with daily life. B. It is wise to read Lawrences books from the end. C. Lawr
