五、阅读理解(10题)
71.You can use your Business Telecard International at any card phone in the UK. Here is some information about making international phone calls.
You can now phone almost any country in the world, although In some cases you can only call major cities. When you cannot make direct dialing calls, you can ask the international operator to help you. This is more expensive and takes more time, but it may be helpful if you want to speak to a particular person and no one else; in this case you should ask for a \"person-to-person\" call. Even more expensive is a re verse charge (对方付款) call when the person who receives the call pays.
If the international line is busy, you can reserve a call; explain the number you want and the operator will call you back when the line is free.
You can save money by calling outside office hours, e.g. early in the morning, late at night, and on Sundays.
Remember that the time may be different in the country you are calling. International time is based on GMT (Greenwich Mean Time); London is on GMT and Moscow, for example, 3 hours ahead.
There is one problem: change to DST ( Daylight Saving Time) for the Summer. In the UK, clocks are put forward one hour in Spring and put back in Autumn, and so London is actually one hour ahead of GMT in the Summer.
You can use your Business Telecard International for domestic calls as well, but there will be an additional charge over the standard rate.
What is the most expensive type of call? A.Direct dial.
B.Through the operator. C.Reverse charge call. D.Outside office hours.
72. On \"Vision Quest\"______. A.young people have bad problems B.young people grow tall very fast
C.young people often help their friends in time of danger D.all of the above
73.By referring to Sams broken bicycle, the author intends to______. A.illustrate the ways to repair his bicycle B.discuss the problems of this bicycle C.tell us how to solve a problem
D.show us how simple it is to repair a bicycle
74.根据以下资料，回答16~19题。
The world's oceans have warmed 50 percent faster over the last 40 years than previously thought due to climate change, Australian and US climate researchers reported Wednesday．Higher ocean temperatures expand the volume of water, contributing to a rise in sea levels that is covering small island nations and threatening to destroy the low-lying, densely-populated low regions around the globe.
The study, published in the British journal Nature, adds to a growing scientific chorus of warnings about the pace and consequences rising oceans．It also serves as a corrective to a massive report issued last year by the Nobel-winning UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), according to the authors.
Rising sea levels are driven by two things: the thermal expansion of sea water, and additional water from melting sources of ice．Both processes are caused by global warming．The ice sheet that sits atop Greenland, for example, contains enough water to raise world ocean levels by seven meters, which would bury sea-level cities from Dhaka to Shanghai.
Trying to figure out how much each of these factors contributes to rising sea levels is critically important to understanding climate change, and forecasting future temperature rises, scientists say．But up to now, there has been a puzzling gap between the projections of computer-based climate models, and the observations of scientists gathering data from the oceans. The new study, led by Catia Domingues of the Centre for Australian Weather and Climate Research, is the first to reunite the models with observed
data．Using new techniques to assess ocean temperatures to a depth of 700 meters from 1961 to 2003, it shows that thermal warming contributed to a 0.53 millimeter-per-year rise in sea levels rather than the 0.32 mm rise reported by the IPCC.
What happens when the ocean's temperature rises? A．It causes sea levels to rise. B．It causes sea levels to decrease.
C．It causes sea levels to remain unchanged． D．It causes sea flood all over the globe.
75.
The best title of the passage is ______.
A.Nobody Knows When Salt Began to Be Used B.The Uses and Importance of Salt in History
C.Thousands of People Were Punished Because of Salt D.Salt Was Important in History
76.Forty-thousand of the world’s young children die every day. Many of these deaths can be prevented. In fact, experts say, techniques now exist to save the lives of half of these children. The techniques are medically effective(有效的), simple to use and low cost. The biggest task has been to inform. parents 'about these life-saving techniques.
Diarrhea(腹泻) is the main cause of death among children in developing countries. Diarrhea results when the body tries to clear itself of harmful bacteria (细菌). The body does this by getting out liquids, sometimes uncontrollably. If too much water, sugar and salt are lost in this way, the body cannot work normally. The child may die.
The United Nations International Children's Fund, UNICF, introduces a technique. It uses a simple mixture of sugar and salt in water. The mixture does not stop diarrhea. But if used often as needed, it keeps fluid (体液) levels
normal until the body has fought off the harmful bacteria.
In Egypt, for example, the treatment was used in a children’s health care program in the province of Alexandria. It reduced by one-half the number of deaths caused by diarrhea. The technique has now been used throughout tile country.
According to the passage, a large number of Children can be saved only when ______.
A.the life-saving ways are medically effective
B.their parents are rich enough for the life-saving techniques C.the life-saving techniques are easy to use D.their parents learn the life-saving techniques

81.Global Shortage of Fresh Water
People often think that water will never be used up. There is plenty of water, such as rain, water from the rivers and wells. It seems as if water is always available around us and we never have to worry about water shortage. In fact water is rather limited on the earth. With the rapid increase of population and fast development of industries,water is more needed than
before. At the same time,a large amount of water has been polluted and wasted every day. Some big cities in China are facing the problem of water shortage already. There, water supply is controlled and industry has been restrained. What should we do about the water shortage? I think,first, the people should be made aware of the real situation about the water. Everyone should
consciously save water and certain law should be made that no water will be polluted. We have to protect the existing water resources and develop new ones. In this way I believe that our cities will not be thirsty for water in the future.
