New York,10 November－5:27 pm,yesterday.Biggest power failure in the city’s
history.
* Thousands of people got stuck in lifts.Martin Saltzman spent three hours
between the 21st and 22nd floors of the Empire State Building.“There were
twelve of us.But no one panicked.We passed the time telling stories and playing
word games.One man wanted to smoke but we didn’t let him.Firemen finally got
us out.”
*“It was the best night we’ve ever had,”said Angela Carraro,who runs an

night here.”

night.They used blankets to keep flying squirrels and small monkeys warm.While

Manhattan.“They were worth $ 50,000.”

The easy way out isn’t always easiest.I learned that lesson when I decided
to treat Doug,my husband of one month,to a special meal.I glanced through my
cookbook and chose a menu which included homemade bread.Knowing the bread would
take time,I started on it as soon as Doug left for work.As I was not
experienced in cooking,I thought if a dozen was good,two dozen would be
better,So I doubled everything.As Doug loved oranges,I also opened a can of
orange and poured it all into the bowl.Soon there was a sticky dough( 面团)covered with ugly yellowish marks.Realizing I had been defeated,I put the
dough in the rubbish bin outside so I wouldn’t have to face Doug laughing at
my work.I went on preparing the rest of the meal,and,when Doug got home,we sat
down to Cornish chicken with rice.He tried to enjoy the meal but seemed
disturbed.Twice he got up and went outside,saying he thought he heard a
noise.The third time he left,I went to the window to see what he was
doing.Looking out,I saw Doug standing about three feet from the rubbish
bin,Holding the lid up with a stick and looking into the container.When I came
out of the house,he dropped the stick and explained that there was something
alive in our rubbish bin. Picking up the stick again,he held the lid up enough
for me to see.I felt cold.But I stepped closer and looked harder.Without doubt
it was my work.The hot sun had caused the dough to double in size and the
fermenting yeast（酵母）made the surface shake and sigh as though it were
breathing.It looked like some unknown being from outer space.I could see why
Doug was so shaken.I had to admit what the‘living thing’was and why it was
there.I don’t know who was more embarrassed(尴尬)by the whole thing—Doug or
me.
59.The writer’s purpose in writing this story is .
A.to tell an interesting experience
B.to show the easiest way out of a difficulty
C.to describe the trouble facing a newly married woman
D.to explain the difficulty of learning to cook from books
60.Why did the woman’s attempt at making the bread turn out to be unsuccess-
ful?
A.The canned orange had gone bad.
B.She did’t use the right kind of flour.
C.The cookbook was hard to understand.
D.She did not follow the directions closely.
61.Why did the woman put the dough in the rubbish bin?
A.She didn’t see the use of keeping it.
B.She meant to joke with her husband.
C.She didn’t want her husband to see it.
D.She hoped it would soon dry in the sun.
62.What made the dough in the bin look frightening?
A.The rising and falling movement.
B.The strange—looking marks.
C.Its shape.
D.Its size.
63.When Doug went out the third time,the woman looked out of the window because
she was .
A.surprised at his being interested in the bin
B.afraid that he would discover her secret
C.unhappy that he didn’t enjoy the meal
D.curious to know what disturbed himC
Decision-thinking is not unlike poker—it often matters not only what you
think,but also what others think you think and what you think they think you
think.The mental process(过程)is similar.Naturally,this card game has often
been of considerable interest to people who are,by any standards,good thinkers.
The great mathematician John von Neumann was one of the founders of game
theory.In particular,he showed that all games fall into two classes:there are
what he called games of‘perfect information’,games like chess where the
players can’t hide anything or play tricks:they don’t win by chance,but by
means of logic and skills.Then there are games of‘imperfect information’,like
poker,in which it is impossible to know in advance that one course of action is
better than another.
One mistaken idea about business is that it can be treated as a game of
perfect information.Quite the reverse.Business,politics,life itself are games
which we must normally play with very imperfect information.Business decisions
are often made with many unknown and unknowable factors(因素)which would even
puzzle(困惑)best poker players.But few business people find it comfortable to
admit that they are taking a chance,and many still prefer to believe that they
are playing chess,not poker.
64.The subject discussed in this text is .
A.the process of reaching decisions
B.the difference between poker and chess
C.the secret of making good business plans
D.the value of information in winning games
65.An important factor in a game of imperfect information is .
A.rules B.luck
C.time D.ideas
66.Which of the following can be used in place of“Quite the reverse”？
A.Quite right. B.True enough.
C.Most unlikely. D.Just the opposite.
67.In the writer’s opinion,when making business decisions one should .
A.put perfect information before imperfect information
B.accept the existence of unknown factors
C.regard business as a game of chess
D.mix known and unknown factors
D
Olaf Stapledon wrote a book called First and Last Men,in which he looked
millions of years ahead.He told of different men and of strange
civilisations(文明),broken up by long‘dark ages’in between.In his view,what
is called the present time is no more than a moment in human history and we are
just the First Men.In 2,000 million years from now there will be the Eighteenth
or Last Men.
However,most of our ideas about the future are really very short－sight-
ed.Perhaps we can see some possibilities for the next fifty years.But the nexthundred?The next thousand?The next million?That’s much more difficult.
When men and women lived by hunting 50,000 years ago,how could they even
begin to picture modern life?Yet to men of 50,000 years from now,we may seem as
primitive(原始的)in our ideas as the Stone-Age hunters do to us.Perhaps they
will spend their days gollocking to make new spundels,or struggling with their
ballalators through the cribe.These words,which I have just made up,have to
stand for things and ideas that we simply can’t think of.
So why bother even to try imagining life far in the future?Here are two
reasons.First,unless we remember how short our own lives are compared with the
whole human history,we are likely to think our own interests are much more
important than they really are.If we make the earth a poor place to live on
because we are careless or greedy(贪婪)or quarrelsome,our grandchildren will
not bother to think of excuses for us.
Second,by trying to escape from present interests and imagine life far in
the future,we may arrive at quite fresh ideas that we can use ourselves.For
example,if we imagine that in the future men may give up farming,we can think
of trying it now.So set your imagination free when you think about the future.
68.A particular mention made of Stapledon’s book in the opening parag- raph
.
A.serves as a description of human history
B.serves as an introduction to the discussion
C.shows a disagreement of views
D.shows the popularity of the book
69.The text discusses men and women 50,000 years ago and 50,000 years from now
in order to show that .
A.human history is extremely long
B.life has changed a great deal
C.it is useless to plan for the next 50 years
D.it is difficult to tell what will happen in the future
70.Spundels and ballalators are used in the text to refer to .
A.tools used in farming
B.ideas about modern life
C.unknown things in the future
D.hunting skills in the Stone Age
71.According to the writer of the text,imagining the future will .
A.serve the interests of the present and future generations
B.enable us to better understand human history
C.help us to improve farming
D.make life worth living
E
Excused from recycling（回收利用）because you live in a high rise with a
rubbish chute（垃圾道）?You won’t be for long.Miami’s Mark Shantzis has made
it simple for those living in tall buildings to use the chute and recycle too.
In Shantzis’ Hi－Rise Recycling System,a chute leads to a pie-shapedcontainer with six boxes that can turn around when operated.The system，which
fits in the same space as the chute and container now in use,enables glass，
plastic,paper,metal,and other rubbish to go into separate boxes.
The system is controlled from a board fixed next to the chute door.The
board has a button for each class of recycling materials（as well as for
unrecyclables ） .At the press of a button,a microcomputer locks all other
floors’chute doors and sets the recycling container turning until the right
box comes under the chute.The computer also counts the loads and gives a signal
by phone when the box is full.And a particular piece of equipment breaks up the
nonrecyclables.
Sorting( 分 类 )recyclables before they are collected saves the use of
expensive materials recovery equipment which otherwise has to do the
sorting.Such equipment often makes recycled materials very expensive,so
expensive that tons of recyclables remain wasted.Shantzis believes his system
could help recycled materials become more cost－effective.
72.The purpose in writing this text is .
A.to encourage people to recycle their rubbish
B.to introduce a recycling system for high rises
C.to describe the use of computer technology in recycling
D.to explain the need for rubbish collection in high rises
73.When he says“You won’t be for long”the writer means that .
A.you’ll soon be living in a cleaner building
B.rubbish chutes will become out of date before long
C.you won’t wait long for your turn to recycle rubbish
D.it won’t be long before you’ll have to recycle your rubbish
74.Before dropping rubbish into the chute you have to .
A.lock the other floors’ chute doors
B.check if the container is full
C.press the correct button
D.break up the rubbish
75.The biggest advantage of this new system is that .
A.it reduces the cost of recycling
B.it saves time and space
C.it saves money for people living in high rises
D.it makes better use of the existing recovery equipment
