Geographers compare and contrast various places on the earth. But they also go beyond the individual places and consider the earth as a 36 . The word geography 37 from two Greek words, ge, the Greek word for "earth" and graphein, 38 means "to write." The English word geography means "to describe the earth." Some geography books focus on a small area like a town or city. Others deal with a state, a region, a nation, or an 39 continent. Many geography books deal with the whole earth. Another way to divide the study of 40 is to distinguish between physical geography and cultural geography. The former focuses on the natural world; the 41 starts with human beings and studies how human beings and their environment act upon each other. But when geography is considered as a single subject, 42 branch can neglect the other. A geographer might be described 43 one who observes, records, and explains the differences between places. If places 44 alike, there would be little need for geographers. We know, however, 45 no two places are exactly the same. Geography, then, is a point of view, a special way of looking at places. 36. (A) whole (B) unit (C) part (D) total 37. (A) falls (B) removes (C) results (D) comes 38. (A) what (B) that (C) which (D) it 39. (A) extensive (B) enormous (C) overall (D) entire40.

What do you think?” “I dont like it.” “Why not?” “I dont know. Theres just something about the salesman that I dont believe.” A few weeks after we had bought another car elsewhere, I happened to find out the history of the drop-head. It had been seriously damaged in a crash before we saw it, and cleverly done up. The car was, indeed, a very bad risk. Of all the things about women that their husbands do not understand, perhaps the biggest question is this: How can she often be right about things of which she has absolutely no knowledge? How does a womans intuition work? What is this strange power that tells her exactly when her husband isnt working late on business, however honest he pretends to be? Is it guesswork, or some sixth sense that men dont have? 46. When was the “first time” the husband felt “really shaken” by his wifes intuition?A. When they bought another car.B. When he learned about the history of the drop-head.C. When he realized she knew so much about cars.D. When his wife spoke about the salesman. 47. What does a persons intuition refer to according to this passage?A. The ability to see through things.B. The ability to make a quick decision.C. The ability to pick out the best one among a number of things.D. The ability to know something by using ones feelings. 48. Why didnt the man know that the car was damaged at first?A. The damage was not serious at all.B. He was not careful enough.C. It had been skillfully repaired.D. The salesman only tried it out smoothly. 49. What answer does the writer give to a womans intuition?A. It is simply a blind guess. C. It must be the sixth sense.B. It is a special kind of knowledge. D. He doesnt really answer the question. 50. From the passage we learn that the salesman was _.A. cheating B. honest C. helpful D. kindPassage 2Social customs and ways of behaving change. Things which were considered impolite many years ago are now acceptable. Just a few years ago, it was considered impolite behavior for a man to smoke on street. No man who thought of himself by smoking when a lady was in a room.Customs also differ from country to country. Does a man walk on the left or the right of a woman in your country? Or doesn't it matter? Should you use both hands when you are eating? Should leave one in your lap or on the table?The Americans and the British not only speak the same language but also share a large number of social customs. For example, in both America and England people shake hands when they meet each other for the first time. Also, most Englishmen will open a door for a woman or offer their seat to a woman, and so will most Americans. Promptness is important both in England and in America. That is , if a dinner invitation is for 7 o'clock , the dinner guest either arrives close to that time or calls up to explain his delay.The important thing to remember about social customs is not to do anything that might make other people feel uncomfortable-especially if they are your guests. When the food was served, one of the guests started to eat his peas with a knife. The other guests were amused or shocked, but the host calmly picked up his knife and began eating in the same way. It would have been bad manners to make his guest feel foolish or uncomfortable.51.If one has accepted a dinner invitation ,what should he do if he is to be late for the dinner?A. He should find an excuseB. He should ask for excuse.C. He should say sorryD. He should telephone to explain his being late.52."It would have been bad manners to make his guests feel foolish or uncomfortable." "Bad manners " means _.A. uglyB. dishonestC. impoliteD. shameful53.which of the following do you think is the best title for this passage?A. Social Customs B. Social LifeC. American and British CustomsD. Promptness Is Important54.According to the text, the best host_.A. tries his best to make his guests feel comfortableB. makes his guests feel excitedC. tries to avoid being naughty to his guestsD. tries to avoid being foolish55.The author of this article may agree with which of the following?A. The guest who ate his peas with a knifeB. The other guests who were amused or shockedC. The host who picked up his knife and began eating in the same wayD. None of the abovePassage 3Cancer is among the top killer diseases in our society today and scientists have found out that stress helps to bring it on. It is worthwhile to consider, therefore, what are the causes of stress in our life, and whether we can do anything about it. Are we under-employed or overburdened with too many responsibilities? Do we have a right balance of work and leisure(闲暇)in our lives? Are our relationships with family, friends or fellow workers all they should be?All these things can be a cause of stress, and it is best to face them honestly, and to bring our frustrations( 失意)into the open.People who have a good row and then forget it are doing their health more good than those who bottle their feelings.If our self-examination has brought any causes of stress to light, let us consider what we can do about them. It is possible to change jobs. We can make more leisure and fill it more happily, if we will accept a different living standard. We can improve our personal relationships by a different attitude. It is we who allow other people to make ourselves unhappy. Often the little things that disturb us are not worth an hours anger. The teaching in the Bible “ Let not the sun go down upon your wrath(anger)” is good advice from the health point of view as well as the religious.56. Which of the following statements is true?A. Freedom from responsibilities helps reduce stressB. Stress is the direct cause of cancerC. The cause of stress is worthy of serious studyD. Cancer is the number one killer in our society today57. According to the passage, which of the following types of people is more likely to suffer from stress?A. People who have cancerB. People who like to quarrel with othersC. People whose living standards is lowD. People who have more responsibilities than they can handle58. Judging from the context, the word “row” in the third paragraph most probably means_. A. a noisy quarrel B. a very loud noise C. a neat line of things side by side D. a journey in a boat59. Which of the following is not mentioned as a way to reduce our stress?A. changing our jobs B. changing our attitude to little things that make us unhappyC. speaking out our frustrations D. reading the Bible60. “Let not the sun go down upon you wrath” probably means_.A. Dont let your anger last longB. Dont get angry while the sun is going downC. Dont get angry easily about little things.D. Dont watch the sun set while you are angry.Passage 4Scientists have developed a slimming（减肥）drug that successfully suppresses appetite and results in a dramatic loss of weight without any apparent ill effects.The drug interferes with appetite control and prevents the build-up of fatty tissue. Laboratory mice given the drug lost up to a third of their total body weight.Within 20 minutes of being given the drug, called C75, the mice lost interest in eating and survived apparently content on just 10 per cent of the food they would normally eat.As a result, mice taking the drug lost 45 per cent more weight than mice fed the same amount of food, which compensate for the lack of food by becoming more lazy.Scientists, from the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, said that C75 is likely to produce a similar effect on humans because appetite control in brain is thought to be based on the same chemical pathways as those in mice.“We are not claiming to have found a fabled（神奇旳）weight-loss drug. What we have found, using C75, is a major pathway in the brain that body uses naturally in regulating appetite at least in mice,”
