Global warming can seem too （49） to worry about, or too uncertain—something projected by the same computer （50） that often can’t get next week’s weather right、 On a raw winter day you might think that a few degrees of warming wouldn’t be such a bad thing anyway、 And no doubt about it: Warnings about （51） change can sound like an environmentalist scare tactic, meant to force us out of our cars and restrict our lifestyles、
Comforting thoughts, perhaps、 Unfortunately, however, the Earth has some discomforting news、
From Alaska to the snowy peaks of the Andes the world is heating up right now, and fast、 Globally, the （52） is up 1°F over the past century, but some of the coldest, most remote spots have warmed much more、 The results aren’t pretty、 Ice is （53） , rivers are running dry, and coasts are （54） , threatening communities、

Passage One
Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage、
My father’s reaction to the bank building at 43rd Street and Fifth Avenue in New York city was immediate and definite: “You wont catch me putting my money in there!” he declared, “Not in that glass box!”
Of course, my father is a gentleman of the old school, a member of the generation to whom a good deal of modern architecture is upsetting, but I am convinced that his negative response was not so much to the architecture as to a violation of his concept of the nature of money、
In his generation money was thought of as a real commodity(實(shí)物. that could be carried, or stolen、 Consequently, to attract the custom of a sensible man, a bank had to have heavy walls, barred windows, and bronze doors, to affirm the fact, however untrue, that money would be safe inside、 If a buildings design made it appear impenetrable, the institution was necessarily reliable, and the meaning of the heavy wall as an architecture symbol dwelt in the prevailing attitude toward money、
But the attitude toward money has, of course, changed、 Excepting pocket money, cash of any kind is now rarely used; money as a tangible commodity has largely been replaced by credit、 A deficit(赤字、 economy, accompanied by huge expansion, has led us to think of money as product of the creative imagination、 The banker no longer offers us a safe: he offers us a service in which the most valuable element is the creativity for the invention of large numbers、 It is in no way surprising, in view of this change in attitude, that we are witnessing the disappearance of the heavywalled bank、
Just as the older bank emphasized its strength, this bank by its architecture boasts of imaginative powers、 From this point of view it is hard to say where architecture ends and human assertion(人們的說法、 begins、
57 The main idea of this passage is that .
A、money is not as valuable as it was in the past
B、changes have taken place in both the appearance and the concept of banks
C、the architectural style of the older bank is superior to that of the modern bank
D、prejudice makes the older generation think that the modern bank is unreliable
58 How do the older generation and the younger one think about money?
A、The former thinks more of money than the latter
B、The younger generation values money more than the older generation
C、Both generations rely on the imaginative power of bankers to make money
D、To the former money is a real commodity but to the latter the means of producing more money、
59 The word “tangible” (Line 2, Para、 4、 refers to something.
A、that is precious B、that is usable
C、that can be touched D、that can be reproduced
60 According to this passage, a modern banker should be .
A、ambitious and friendly B、reliable and powerful
C、sensible and impenetrable D、imaginative and creative
61 It can be inferred from the passage that the author’s attitude towards the new trend in banking is .
A、cautious B、regretful C、positive D、hostile
Passage Two
Questions 62 to 66 are based on the following passage、
Sixteen years ago, Eileen Doyles husband, an engineer, took his four children up for an early morning cup of tea, packed a small case and was never seen or heard of again、 Eileen was astonished and in a state of despair、 They had been a happy family and, as far as she knew, there had been nothing wrong with their marriage、
Every day of the year a small group of men and women quietly pack a few belongings and without so much as a note or a good—bye close the front door for the last time, leaving their debts, their worries and their confused families behind them、
Last year, more than 1,200 men and nearly as many women were reported missing from home—the highest in 15 years、 Many did return home within a year, but others rejected the past completely and are now living a new life somewhere under a different identity、
To those left behind this form of desertion is a terrible blow to their pride and selfconfidence、 Even the finality of death might be preferable、 At least it does not imply rejection or failure、 Worse than that, people can be left with an unfinished marriage, not knowing whether they will have to wait seven years before they are free to start a fresh life、
Clinical psychologist Paul Brown believes most departures of this kind to be well planned rather than impulsive、 “It’s typical of the kind of personality which seems able to ignore other people’s pain and difficulties、 Running away, like killing yourself, is a highly aggressive act、 By creating an absence the people left behind feel guilty, upset and empty、”
62 When her husband left home, Eileen Doyle .
A、could not forgive him for taking the children
B、had been expecting it to happen for some time
C、could not understand why
D、blamed herself for what had happened
63 Most people who leave their families behind them .
A、do so without warning
B、do so because of their debts
C、come back immediately
D、change their names
64 Some people would even prefer the death to the running away of their spouse(配偶、 because .
A、their spouse would feel no pain during the death
B、their spouse death would not blow their pride and confidence
C、a desertion would not bring a feeling of rejection or failure
D、their spouse death would make them feel less painful
65 The man or woman left behind with an unfinished marriage usually .
A、admits responsibility for the situation
B、wishes the person who has left were dead
C、comes back within a year
D、will have no legal marriage life for seven years
66 Paul Brown regards leaving home in such circumstances as .
A、an act of despair
B、an act of selfishness
C、the result of a sudden decision
D、the result of the enormous sense of guilt
Part ⅤError Correction
Direction:This part consists of a short passage、 In this passage, there are altogether 10 mistakes, one in each numbered line、 You may have to change a word, add a word or delete a word、 Mark out the mistakes and put the corrections in the blanks provided、 If you change a word, cross it out and write the correct word in the corresponding blank、 If you add a word, put an insertion mark in the right place and write the missing word in the blank、 If you delete a word, cross it out and put a slash in the blank;
We live in a society in there is a lot of talk about 67
science, but I would say that there are not 5 percent of
the people who are equipped with schooling, including
college, to understand scientific reasoning、 We are
more ignorant of science as people with comparable 68
educations in Western Europe、
There are a lot of kids who know everything about
computers—how to build them, how to take them apart,
how to write programs for games、 So if you ask them 69
to explain about the principles of physics that have gone 70
into creating the computer, you don’t have the faintest idea 71
The failure to understand science leads to such
things like the neglect of the human creative power、 72
It also takes rise to a blurring of the distinction 73
between science and technology、 Lots of people don’t
differ between the two、 Science is the production 74
of new knowledge that can be applied or not, since 75
technology is the application of knowledge to the
production of some products, machinery or the like、
The two are really very different, and people who have
the faculty for one very seldom have a faculty for the other、
Science in itself is harmless, more or less、 But as
soon as it can provide technology, it is not necessarily
harmful、No society has yet learned how to forecast the 76
consequences of new technology, which can be enormous;
