painters .Of the musical compositions that were considered as 58 to the visual
arts ,perhaps the most famous is Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an Exhibition.

You either have it , or you don’t –a sense of direction ,that is .But why is it
that some people could find their way across the Sahara without a map ,while others
第5页 | 共12页can lose themselves in the next street?
Scientists say we’re all born with a sense of direction ,but it is not property
understood how it works .One theory is that people with a good sense of direction
have simply worked harder at developing it. Research being carried out at Liverpool
University supports this idea and suggests that if we don’t use it. we lose it .
“Children as young as seven have the ability to find their way around.” says Jim
Martland .Research Director of the project . “However if they are not allowed out
alone or are taken everywhere by car ,they never develop the skills”
Jim Martland also emphasizes that young people should be taught certain skills to
improve their sense of direction .He makes the following suggestions.

●If you leave your bike in a strange place ,put it near something like a big stone
or a tree.
Note landmarks on the route as you go away from your bike .When you return ,go back
along the same route
●Simplify the way of finding your direction by using lines such as streets in a
town,
streams ,or walls in the countryside to guide you .Count your steps so that you know

can help to find out where you are.

presumptuous of me to tell you what to do .”

suggestions . I employed you because I respect your experience in this field, but

cross the world , 11 billion people have no access to clean drinking water . More
第7页 | 共12页than2.6 bullion people lack basic sanitation (卫生设备) .
The combination proves deadly . Each year . diseases related to inadequate water
and sanitation kill between 2 and 3 million people and cause an estimated 80 percent
of all sicknesses in the developing world . Safe thinking water is a precondition
for health and the fight against child death rate , inequality between men and women,
and poverty .
Consider these facts :
●The average distance that women in Africa and Asia walk to collect water is 6
kilometers .
●Only 58 percent of children in sub-Saharan Africa are drinking safe water, and
only 37 percent of children in South Asia have access to even a basic toilet .
●Each year in India alone, 73 million working days are lost to water-borne
diseases .
Here are three ways you can help :
1) Write Congress
Current U.S. foreign aid for drinking water and sanitation budgets only one dollar
per year per American citizen . Few members of Congress have ever received a letter
from voters , about clean drinking water abroad .
2) Sponsor a project with a faith-based organization
Many U.S. religious groups already sponsor water and sanitation projects, working
with partner organizations abroad . Simply put , a single project by a U.S.
organization can make safe water a reality for thousands of people .
3) Support nonprofit water organizations
Numerous U.S.-based nonprofits work skillfully abroad in community-led projects
related of drinking water and sanitation . Like the sample of non-profits noted as
follows , some organizations are large , others small-scale , some operate worldwide ,
others are devoted to certain areas in Africa , Asia , or Latin America . Support
them generously .
72．The three facts presented in the passage the used to illustrate that .
A．poverty can result in water-borne diseases
B．people have no access to clean drinking water
C．women’s rights are denied in some developing countries .
D．safe drinking water should be a primary concern
73．The intended readers of the passage are _____________.
A．Americans B．overseas sponsors
C．Congressmen D．U.S-based water organizations
74．The main purpose of the passage is to call on people to ___________.
A．get rid of water-related diseases in developing countries
B．donate money to people short of water through religious groups
C．fight against the worldwide water shortage and sanitation problem
D．take joint action in support of some nonprofit water organizations
75．What information will probably be provided following the last paragraph?

Equipped only with a pair of binoculars(双筒望远镜) and ready to spend long hours
waiting in all weathers for a precious glance of a rare bullfinch(红腹灰雀).
Britain’s birdwatchers had long been supposed to be lovers of a minority sport. But
new figures show birdwatching is fast becoming a popular pastime, with almost three
million of us absorbed in our fluttering feathered friends.
Devoted birdwatchers, those prepared to travel thousands of miles for a sighting
of a rare Siberian bird are fast being joined by a new breed of follower whose interest
is satiated by watching a few finches(雀科鸣鸟) on a Sunday walk or putting up a
bird-box in the back garden.
“Almost three million UK birdwatchers is certainly possible if you include everyone
with only a casual interest.” Stephen Moss said in his newly published book－A Bird
in the Bush a Social History of Birdwatching－which records the pursuit from the
rich Victorian Englishman’s love of shooting rare birds to the less offensive
observational tendencies of birdwatchers today.
Television wildlife programmes have helped to fuel the new trend . Last summer ,BBC
2’s Britain Goes Wild was a surprise success .It pulled in three million viewers
and led to bird-houses selling out across the UK as 45,000 people promised to put
up a box.
Birdwatchers’ networking system first came to the attention of the nation in
1989, when a birdwatcher caught sight of the first Vermivora chrysoptera-a golden
–winged songbird from North America－to be seen in Britain. He put a message our
on the network service Birdline, and the next day 3,000 birdwatchers proved the fell
pull of a truly rare bird as they visited the Tesco car park in Kent, where it had
settled. Today, birdwatchers can log on to www.birdline.co.uk or have news of the
latest sightings texted to their phones.
“Multimillion-pound spending on, binoculars, bird food and boxes point to the
increasing numbers of birdwatchers,” said David Cromack, the editor of Bird
Watching magazine “The number of people involved is so big that they have great
potential to influence government decisions affecting the environment.”
76．The word “satiated” in paragraph 2 can best be replaced by “ ”.
A．affected B．shared C．satisfied D．narrowed
77．What happened after the message of seeing a Vermivora chrysoptera was put on
the network?
A．Birdwatchers helped the rare bird settle in Kent.
B．Large numbers of birdwatchers went to view the bird.
C．Many birdwatchers logged on to the website for details.
D．Birdwatchers showed their determination to protect the rare bird.
78．Which of the following CANNOT be true according to the passage?
A．Television wildlife programmes started the popular pastime of birdwatching.
B．The network service has contributed to the rapid development of birdwatching.
第9页 | 共12页C．Birdwatching in Britain was long considered a sport with a small group of followers.
D．The current situation of birdwatching may promote the protection of the
environment.
79．The passage mainly tells us about ___________ in UK.
A．the history of birdwatchig B．a growing passion for birdwatching
C．the impact of media on birdwatching D．birdwatcing as a popular expensive sport

Directions: Read the following text and choose the most suitable heading from A-F
for each paragraph. There is one extra heading which you do not need.
80．
Auctions are public sales of goods, conducted by an officially approved auctioneer.
He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers, or “bids”, for
the various items on sale. He encourages buyers to bid higher figures, and finally
names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods. This is called “knocking down”
the goods, for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table
at which he stands.
81．
The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction, and the English word comes
from the Latin auctio, maning “increase” The Romans usually sold in this way the
goods taken in war. In England in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, goods
were often sold “by the candle”: a short candle was lit by the auctioneer, and
bids could be made while it stayed alight.
82．
Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction. Among these are
coffee, skins, wool, tea, furs, silk and wines. Auction sales are also usual for
land and property, furniture, pictures, rare books, old china and similar works of
art.
83．
An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles
to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers. If the
advertisement cannot give full details, catalogues are printed, and each group of
第10页 | 共12页goods to be sold together, called a “lot”, is usually given a number. The auctioneer
need not begin with Lot I and continue in the order of numbers: he may wait until
he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots
they are likely to be interested in.
84．
The auctioneer’s services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price
the goods are sold for. The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing
up the bidding as high as possible. He will not waste time by starting the bidding
too low. He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting
a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other.
