Now this is perhaps the first generation of American youngsters who have never been close by during the birth of a baby and have never experienced the death of a family memberNowadays when people grow old, we often send them to nursing homes. When they get sick, we send them to a hospital, where children are forbidden to visit terminal (晚期的 patients even when those patients are their parents. This deprives剥夺the dying patient of family members during the last few days of his life and it deprives the children of an experience of death, which is an important learning experienceSome of my colleagues and I once interviewed and followed about 500 terminally in order to find out what they could teach us and how we could be of more benefit, not just to them but to the members of their families as well. We were most impressed by the fact that even those patients who were not told of their serious illness were quite aware of its potential outcomeIt is important for family members, and doctors and nurses to understand these patients communication in order to truly understand their needs, fears and fantasies. Most of our patients welcomed another human being with whom they could talk openly, honestly, and frankly about their trouble. Many of them shared with us their great need to be informed, to be kept up - to - date on their medical condition and to be told when the end was near. We found out that patients who had been dealt with openly and frankly were better able to cope with the coming of death and finally to reach a true stage of acceptance before death41. The elders of today's Americans _ .A. are often absent when a family member is born or dyingB. are unfamiliar with birth and deathC. usually see the birth or death of a family memberD. have often experienced the fear of death as part of life 42. Children in America are deprived of the chance to_.A. visit a patient at hospital   B. visit their family membersC. learn how to face death    D. look after the patients43. The need of a dying patient for people to accompany him shows_A. his wish for communication with other people      B. his fear of death C. his unwillingness to die             D. he feels very upset about his condition44. It may be concluded from the passage that_.A. dying patients should be truthfully informed of their conditionB. dying patients are afraid of being told of the coming of deathC. most patients are unable to accept death until it cant be avoidedD. most doctors and nurses understand what dying patients need BA rainforest is an area covered by tall trees with the total high rainfall spreading quite equally through the year and the temperature rarely dipping below l6Rainforests have a great effect on the world environment because they can take in heat from the sun and adjust the climateWithout the forest cover，these areas would reflect more heat into the atmosphere，warming the rest of the world. Losing the rainforests may also influence wind and rainfall patterns，potentially causing certain natural disasters all over the world In the past hundred years，humans have begun destroying rainforests in search of three major resources(资源)：land for crops，wood for paper and other products，land for raising farm animalsThis action affects the environment as a wholeFor example，a lot of carbon dioxide (二氧化碳)in the air comes from burning the rainforestsPeople obviously have a need for the resources we gain from cutting trees but we will suffer much more than we will benefit. There are two main reasons for thisFirstly，when people cut down trees，generally they can only use the land for a year or twoSecondly，cutting large sections of rainforests may provide a good supply of wood right now，but in the long run it actually reduces the worlds wood supply Rainforests are often called the worlds drug storeMore than 25 of the medicines we use today come from plants in rainforestsHowever，fewer than lof rainforest plants have been examined for their medical valueIt is extremely likely that our best chance to cure diseases lies somewhere in the worlds shrinking rainforests45. Rainforests can help to adjust the climate because they . A. reflect more heat into the atmosphereB. bring about high rainfall throughout the worldC. rarely cause the temperature to drop lower than l6D. reduce the effect of heat from the sun on the earth46. What does the word “this underlined in the third paragraph refer to?A. We will lose much more than we can gain. B. Humans have begun destroying rainforests. C. People have a strong desire for resources. D. Much carbon dioxide comes from burning rainforests. 47. It can be inferred from the text that A. we can get enough resources without rainforestsB. there is great medicine potential in rainforestsC. we will grow fewer kinds of crops in the gained landD. the level of annual rainfall affects wind patterns48. What might be the best title for the text?A. How to Save Rainforests B. How to Protect NatureC. Rainforests and the Environment D. Rainforests and Medical Development CAmong all the fast growing science and technology, the research of human genes, or biological engineering as people call it, is drawing more and more attention now. Sometimes it is a hot topic discussed by people.       The greatest thing that gene technology can do is to cure serious diseases that doctors at present can almost do nothing with, such as cancer and heart disease. Every year, millions of people are murdered by these two killers. And to date, doctors have not found an effective way to cure them. But if the gene technology is applied, not only these two diseases can be cured completely, bringing happiness and more living days to the patients, but also the great amount of money people spend on curing their diseases can be saved, therefore it benefits the economy as well. In addition, human life span(寿命) can be prolonged.        Gene technology can help people to give birth to more healthy and clever children. Some families, with the English imperial family being a good example, have hereditary diseases. This means their children will for sure have the family disease, which is a great trouble for these families. In the past, doctors could do nothing about hereditary diseases. But gene technology can solve this problem perfectly. The scientist just need to find the wrong gene and correct it, and a healthy child will be born.       Some people are worrying that the gene research can be used to manufacture human beings in large quantities. In the past few years, scientists have succeeded in cloning a sheep, therefore these people predict that human babies would soon be cloned. But I believe cloned babies will not come out in large quantities, for most couples in the world can have babies in very normal way. Of course, the governments must take care to control gene technology.49What does “these two killers in the second paragraph refer to ?       Agene technology and another treatment of the two diseases.       BThe two murderers who killed the cloned baby       CThe two diseases of cancer and heart disease       DHereditary diseases and cancer50Whats the main idea of the third paragraph?       AGene technology can help people to give birth to a baby.       BGene technology can be used to clone human babies.       CHow gene technology can be used to treat hereditary diseases.       DGene technology can help the English imperial family out.51In what way does gene technology help to treat hereditary diseases?       AGene technology helps people with hereditary diseases to live longer.       BUsing gene technology, scientist finds the wrong gene and corrects it.       CUsing gene technology, human babies can be cloned.       DDoctors can cure cancer and heart disease with the help of gene technology.52What is the main purpose of writing this passage?       AExpressing the writers idea that gene technology will benefit people       BTelling people the advantages of gene technology       CTelling the readers that gene technology will not benefit people       DExplaining that gene technology will also do harm to the humanity DBelton and Canfield are two seashore towns, not far apart. Both towns have many hotels, and in summer the hotels are full of holiday- makers and other tourists(观光者).Last August there was a fire at the Sea breeze Hotel in Belton. The next day, this news appeared on page two of the towns newspaper, The Belton Post:FIRE AT SEABREEZELate last night firemen hurried to the Sea breeze Hotel and quickly put out a small fire in a bedroom. The hotel manager said that a cigarette started the fire. We say again to all our visitors: “Please dont smoke cigarettes in bed. This was Beltons first
