3、Cars Are Good forthe Environment,HonestBritain\'s motorindustry is planning a majorpublicity campaign to counter what it sees as an official anti-car bias and to improve the environmental image of the cars, according to documents leaked to the pressure group, Friends of the Earth (FOE). The five-year campaign could cost up to £12 million.The internal document which was produced last month by the Society of MotorManufacturers and Traders, says that the "ultimate objective of the campaign must be to protect the long-term commercial freedom of the motorindustry and the lifestyle freedom of car users". The campaign will highlight the motorindustry\'s efforts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide. European car manufacturers have already agreed with the European Com mission to reduce CO2 emissions from new cars by 25 percent to target of 140 grams per kilometer by 2008. However, the document also reveals that the industry is someway from meeting the target. Forexample, last year\'s new cars exceed an average of 192 grams per kilometre—some 37 percent above the target.To help control these emissions, the government has proposed replacing the flat rate annual tax on cars with a tax related to engine size so that owners of large gas-guzzler would pay more than owners of small cars. But the motorindustry opposes taxes on persons owning cars preferring taxes on use.Richard Barnet, the society\'s media manager, says: "We will work with the government to practice a practical system. " ____【单选题】

4、PopulationThe advantages and disadvantages of large population have long been a subject of discussion among economists. It has been argued that the supply of good land is limited . To feed a large population, inferiorland must be cultivated and the good land worked intensively. produces less and this means a lower average income than could be obtained with a smaller population . Other economists have argued that a large population gives more scope forspecialization and the development of facilities such as ports, roads and railways, which are not likely to be built unless there is a big demand to justify themOne of the difficulties in carrying out a worldwide birth control program lies in the fact that official attitudes to population growth vary from country to country depending on the level of industrial development and the availability of food and raw materials. In the developing country where a vastly expanded population is pressing hard upon the limits of food, space and natural resources, concern of government to plane a limiton the birth rate, whatever the consequences may be. In a highly industrialized society the problem may be more complex. A decreasing birth rate may lead to unemployment ____. When the pressure of population on housing declines, prices also decline and the building industry is weakened. Faced with considerations such as these, the government of a developed country may well prefer to see a slowly increasing population, rather than one which is stable orin decline.【单选题】

5、The Process of AgeingAt the age of twelve years, the human body is at its most vigorous. It has yet to reach its full size and strength, and its owner his orher full intelligence; but at this age the likelihood of death is the least. Earlier, we were infants and young children, and consequently more vulnerable; later, we shall undergo a progressive loss of our vigorresistance which, though imperceptible (察觉不出的) at first, will finally become so steep that we can live no longer, however well we look after ourselves, and however well society, and our doctors, look after us This decline in vigorwith the passing of time is called ageing. If we escape wars, accidents and diseases, we shall eventually "die of old age", and this happens at a rate which differs little from person to person. Some of us will die sooner, a few will live longer. But there is a virtual limiton how long we can hope to remain alive, however lucky and robust we are.Normal people tend to forget this process until they are reminded of it. We are so familiar with the fact that man ages, that people have foryears assumed that the process of losing vigorwith time was something self-evident, like the cooling of a hot kettle orthe wearing-out of a pair of shoes. "They have also assumed that all animals, and probably other organisms such as trees, oreven the universe itself, must in the nature of things "wear out". Most animals we commonly observe do in fact age as we do; and mechanical systems like a wound watch, orthe sun, do in fact run out of energy. But these are not analogous to what happens when man ages. A run-down watch is still a watch and can be rewound. and old watch, by contrast, becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending. But a watch could never repair itself it does not consist of living parts, only of metal, which wears away by friction (摩擦). We could, at one time tune, repair ourselves well enough, at least to overcome all but the most instantly fatal illnesses and accidents. Between twelve and eighty years we gradually lose this power.____. If we could stay as vigorous as we are at twelve, it would take about 700 years forhalf of us to die, and another 700 of the survivors to be reduced by half again.【单选题】
A. Some old people are oppressed by the fear of death
B. an illness which at twelve would knock us over, at eighty can knock us out, and into our grave
C. and mechanical systems like a wound watch, orthe sun, do in fact run out of energy
D.This decline in vigorwith the passing of time is called ageing
E.and old watch, by contrast, becomes so worn and unreliable that it eventually is not worth mending
F.and this happens at a rate which differs little from person to person
正确答案:B
答案解析:前一句说,在12~80岁之间的这段时间里我们会逐渐地丧失自我修复的能力。所选句是对前一句话的具体说明,给前面一句提供了生动的注释。值得注意的连贯词是在两句中都出现的twelve和eighty。
