17.In the US and Britain,the slogan around colleges was"Save water.Shower with a friend."Now,Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse.It charges students for the amount of time in a shower.Before entering the bathhouse,students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card.The clock starts ticking the minute the tape is turned on.It pauses when a button is pressed for soap.An integrated circuit (IC) card reader at each tap shows the time.No money,no water.The benefits of the new system
can be seen with the old system which charged 1 yuan for each person regardless of time in the shower.The university used  about 320 tons of water daily under the old system,but only 160 tons now.
     Many students use the new system but opinions on it are divided.Some students say it is  uncomfortable,because bathing had become a sort of race.Many people using it for the first time are not sure how long they need to shower.Some might be embarrassed if their time is UP and they're still covered in soap.They have to ask the bathhouse worker to help them buy extra time.
"It's a flaw in the system that you can not buy extra time on the ID card,"said Ren,a freshman.The University is also considering some student's suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower.Not surprisingly,some are complaining about losing the hour shower.But many students say the move helps them develop a water-saving sense.
     Without the time limit,most students tended to shower for half to an hour in the bathhouse.
     Some even used the hot water to wash their clothes."In my experience,10-20 minutes is enough,"said Dai Zhihua,a third-year student who usually takes 8 minutes.
     A similar system has been installed in other universities.Shanghai Normal University introduced it at its Fengxiang Campus in September.The bathing fee there is 0.2 yuan per minute.One male student responded by setting a record with a two-minute shower.

41.According to the passage,which of the following is NOT true?A
    A.A student has to pay when a bath is over.
    B.The clock keeps timing except the pause for soap.
    C.If money runs out,there will be no water.

42.The author's attitude toward the new bathhouse System in Wuhan University isD  
    A.critical          B.serious       C.a(chǎn)ppreciative       D.not mentioned
43,Since the new system was performed,Cof water has been saved.
    A.a(chǎn) quarter       B.one third      C.one half         D.two thirds
44.It can be inferred from the passage thatB   
    A.the new operation can solve the problem of water crisis
    B.the new operation can raise students'environmental awareness
    C.a(chǎn) similar operation will be set in other universities
    D.Most students spend less than half an hour showering in the bathroom.
45.In which column can you find this passage?C

分析 本文是一篇說明文,文章主要講的是武漢大學(xué)為增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識(shí)而對(duì)洗澡采取的一種新措施:洗澡按時(shí)計(jì)費(fèi).學(xué)生們?cè)谙丛枨;用現(xiàn)金或?qū)W生身份證來支付想要洗澡時(shí)間的費(fèi)用.學(xué)生對(duì)這種新體制的做法觀點(diǎn)是不一樣的.一些學(xué)生認(rèn)為這樣不舒服,洗澡像比賽一樣.有些學(xué)生抱怨這樣做也有弊端,用身份證不能買到額外的時(shí)間來洗澡,應(yīng)該在洗澡完后再付費(fèi)才合理.但也有學(xué)生認(rèn)為這樣做法能幫助形成節(jié)約用水的理念.

解答 41-45 ADCBC
41.A    細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段中的"Before entering the bathhouse,students pay for the amount of time they want in the shower with cash or their student ID card."可知,學(xué)生是在洗澡前付款的.而第三段中的"The University is also considering some student's suggestions that they be allowed to pay after they've finished the shower"可知,只是值得考慮的建議,故選A.
42.D   推理判斷題.縱觀全文可知,文章主要講的是武漢大學(xué)為增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識(shí)而對(duì)洗澡采取的一種新措施:洗澡按時(shí)計(jì)費(fèi).然后闡述了學(xué)生對(duì)學(xué)校這樣舉措的不同觀點(diǎn),并沒有提及作者對(duì)這種做法的觀點(diǎn)和態(tài)度,故選D.
43.C   細(xì)節(jié)理解題.根據(jù)第一段中的"The university used  about 320 tons of water daily under the old system,but only 160 tons now."可知,兩個(gè)數(shù)字進(jìn)行比較可知,"one half   一半"C項(xiàng)符合語境,故選C.
44.B    推理判斷題.根據(jù)第一段中的"In the US and Britain,the slogan around colleges was"Save water.Shower with a friend."Now,Wuhan University has come up with another system for the campus bathhouse."可知,大學(xué)這些做法都是為了增加學(xué)生節(jié)約用水的意識(shí),故選B.
45.C   推理判斷題.縱觀全文可知,文章主要講的是大學(xué)就洗澡問題采取的新舉措.因此應(yīng)該是"校園生活"符合語境,故選C.

點(diǎn)評(píng) 解答細(xì)節(jié)理解題時(shí),一個(gè)常用的方法就是運(yùn)用定位法,即根據(jù)題干和選項(xiàng)中的關(guān)鍵詞從原文中找到相關(guān)的句子,與選項(xiàng)進(jìn)行比較從而確定答案;推理判斷題既要求學(xué)生透過文章表面文字信息推測(cè)文章隱含意思,又要求學(xué)生對(duì)作者的態(tài)度、意圖及文章細(xì)節(jié)的發(fā)展作正確的推理判斷,力求從作者的角度去考慮,不要固守自己的看法或觀點(diǎn).

12.What is the nature of the scientific attitude,the attitude of the man or woman who studies and applies physics,biology,chemistry,geology,engineering,medicine or any other science?
    We all know that science plays an important role in our societies.However,many people believe that our progress depends on two different aspects of science.The first aspect is the application of the machines,products and systems of knowledge that scientists and technologists develop.The second is the application of the special methods of thought and action that scientists use in their work.
    What are these special methods of thinking and acting?First of all,it seems that a successful scientist is curious-he wants to find out how and why the universe works.He usually pays attention to problems which he notices have no satisfying explanation,and looks for relationships even if the data available seem to be unconnected.Moreover,he thinks he can improve the existing conditions and enjoys trying to solve the problems which this involves.
    He is a good observer,accurate,patient and objective and uses the facts he observes to the fullest.For example,trained observers obtain a very large amount of information about a star mainly from the accurate analysis of the simple lines that appear in a spectrum(光譜).
    He does not accept statements which are not based on the most complete evidence available.He rejects authority as the only basis for truth.Scientists always check statements and make experiments carefully and objectively.
    Furthermore,he does not readily accept his own idea,since he knows that man is the least reliable of scientific instruments and that a number of factors tend to disturb objective investigation.
    Lastly,he is full of imagination since he often has to look for relationships in data which are not only complex but also frequently incomplete.Furthermore,he needs imagination if he wants to guess how processes work and how events take place.
    These seem to be some of the ways in which a successful scientist or technologist thinks and acts.

66.Many people believe that science helps society to progress throughB.
A.knowledge only                        B.more than one aspect
C.technology only                       D.the use of machines
67.Which of the following statements about a curious scientist is TRUE?C
A.He doesn't find confidence and pleasure in work.
B.He is interested in problems that are explained.
C.He makes efforts to investigate potential connections.
D.He looks for new ways of acting.
68.According to the passage,a successful scientist would NOTA.
A.easily believe in unchecked statements      
B.easily criticize others'research work
C.a(chǎn)lways use his imagination in work  
D.a(chǎn)lways use evidence from observation
69.What is the author's attitude towards the topic?B
A.Critical.B.Objective.C.Unclear.D.Prejudiced.
70.What does the passage mainly discuss?C
A.Application of technology.
B.Progress in modem society.

7.A drunken burglar in the Orrell Park area of Liverpool,ended up leaping out of a window after a 10-year-old girl asked him to prove he was a superhero.
The drunken thief who pretended he was Superman to stop a child raising the alarm has been caught after he leapt from the apartment building in his pants to make the girl convinced.
Thief Ethan Adamson,25,told police that he had broken into a fifth-floor flat after a drinking party,believing it was empty.
But he was horrified when the owner's 10-year-old daughter woke up while he was there.

Police later found him on the roof in just his yellow pants,covered in cuts and bruises(淤青) after a neighbor heard his cries of pain.
He now faces seven years behind bars for burglary.
Police spokesman Frank Armado said,"He was in quite a serious state and couldn't move until we got up there using ladders.He was treated for his injuries and we got him some fresh clothes,before taking him to hospital where he is being kept under guard until he is well enough to be arrested."

B.I could make the girl trust me.
C.I could prove I was a superhero.
