1．As people slowly learn to cure diseases，control floods，prevent hunger，and stop wars，fewer people die every year．As a result，the population of the world is becoming larger．In 1925 there were about 2 billion people in the world； today there are over 6 billion．
When the number rises，extra mouths must be fed．New lands must be brought under development，or land already farmed must be made to produce more crops．In some areas the land is so over-developed that it will be difficult to make it provide more crops．In some areas the population is so large that the land is divided into too tiny units to make improvement possible with farming methods．If a large part of this farming population went into industrial work，the land might be farmed much more productively （多產(chǎn)地） with modern methods．
There is now a race for science，technology，and industry to keep the output of food rising faster than the number of people to be fed．New types of crops，which will grow well in bad weather，are being developed，so there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle in Siberia and North America．Irrigation （灌溉） and dry-farming methods bring poor lands under the plough．Dams hold back the waters of great rivers，which can provide water for the fields in all seasons and provide electric power for new industries．Industrial chemistry provides fertilizer to suit different soils．Every year，some new methods are made to increase or to protect the food of the world．
48．The author says that the world population is increasing becauseC．
A．there are many rich valleys and large fields
B．farmers are producing more crops than before
C．people are living longer due to better living conditions
D．new lands are being made into farmlands
49．The author says that in areas with large populations，land might be more productively farmed ifC．
A．the land was divided into smaller pieces  
B．people moved into the countryside
C．industrial methods were used in farming  
D．the units of land were much larger
50．We are told that there are now farms beyond the Arctic Circle．This has been made  possible byA．
A．growing new types of crops      
B．irrigation and dry-farming means
C．providing fertilizers             
D．destroying pests and diseases
51．Why do some people use dams to hold back waters from great rivers？C
A．To develop a new kind of dry-farming methods．
B．To prevent crops from floods．
C．To provide water and electricity in all seasons．
D．To water poor lands in bad weather．

20．Personal computers and the Internet give people new choices about how to spend their time．
Some may use this freedom to share less time with certain friends or family members，but new technology will also let them stay in closer touch with those they care most about．I know this from personal experience．
E-mail makes it easy to work at home，which is where I now spend most weekends and evenings．My working hours aren't necessarily much shorter than they once were but I spend fewer of them at the office．This lets me share more time with my young daughter than I might have if she'd been born before electronic mail became such a practical tool．
The Internet also makes it easy to share thoughts with a group of friends．Say you do something fun see a great movie perhaps-and there are four or five friends who might want to hear about it．If you call each one，you may tire of telling the story．
With E-mail，you just write one note about your experience，at your convenience，and address it to all the friends you think might be interested．They can read your message when they have time，and read only as much as they want to．They can reply at their convenience，and you can read what they have to say at your convenience．
E-mail is also an inexpensive way stay in close touch with people who live far away．More than a few parents use E-mail to keep in touch，even daily touch，with their children off at college．
We just have to keep in mind that computers and the Internet offer another way of staying in touch．They don't take the place of any of the old ways．

19．The common cold is the world's most widespread illness，which is plagues（疫病） that flesh receives．
The most widespread fallacy（謬誤） of all is that colds caused by cold．They are not．They are caused by viruses passing on from person to person．You catch a cold by coming into contact，directly or indirectly，with someone who already has one．If cold causes colds，it would be reasonable to expect the Eskimos（愛斯基摩人） to suffer from them forever．But they do not．And in isolated arctic regions explorers have reported being free from colds until coming into contact again with infected people from the outside world by way of packages and mail dropped from airplanes．
During the First World War soldiers who spent long periods in the trenches（戰(zhàn)壕），cold and wet，showed no increased tendency to catch colds．
In the Second World War prisoners at the notorious Auschwitz concentration camp（集中營），naked and starving，were astonished to find that they seldom had colds．At the Common Cold Research Unit in England，volunteers took part in Experiments in which they gave themselves to the discomforts of being cold and wet for long stretches of time．After taking hot baths，they put on bathing suits，allowed themselves to be with cold water，and then stood about dripping wet in drafty room．Some wore wet socks all day while others exercised in the rain until close to exhaustion．Not one of the volunteers came down with a cold unless a cold virus was actually dropped in his nose．
If，then，cold and wet have nothing to do with catching colds，why are they more frequent in the winter？Despite the most pains-taking research，no one has yet found the answer．One explanation offered by scientists is that people tend to stay together indoors more in cold weather than at other times，and this makes it easier for cold viruses to be passed on．
No one has yet found a cure for the cold．There are drugs and pain suppressors（止痛片） such as aspirin，but all they do is relieve the symptoms（癥狀）．
41． The writer offeredBexamples to support his argument．
A.4                    B.5                C.6                D.3

A．they are working in the isolated arctic regions
B．they are writing reports in terribly cold weather
C．they are free from work in the isolated arctic regions
D．they are coming into touch again with the outside world

13．Archaeologists believe they are on the turning point of throwing light on the life of William Shakespeare-by excavating （發(fā)掘） what may have been the playwright's dust hole．
Experts have begun excavating the ruins of New Place，Shakespeare's former home in Stratford-upon-Avon，which was destroyed 250 years ago．Although little remains of the property，the team，led by Birmingham Archaeology，believes it has identified a dust hole used by the 16th century poet．
Small pieces of pottery （陶瓷） and broken clay pipe have already been found from a muddy hole on the site，which they claim could yield some of the most significant discoveries about Shakespeare in decades．The dig focuses on three areas of the property，which Shakespeare bought in 1597 when he returned to his home town from London having achieved fame-including the so-called knot garden at the back of the building．
Dr Diana Owen，Director of the Shakespeare Birthplace Trust，which owns the site，said，"We do not know if the knot garden was an area used by Shakespeare-it may have been a yard simply used by his servants．But this could actually yield some fantastic results，especially if it was an area where rubbish was thrown or the dust hole was located．"
Kevin Colls，from Birmingham Archaeology，added，"Through documentary evidence we know Shakespeare lived at New Place but we have very little information regarding the layout （布局） of the house and gardens at this time．Through archaeological fieldwork，in particular the dig of structural remains and the recovery of artefacts，we hope to fill in the blanks．"
Until October，visitors will be able to watch archaeologists and volunteers at work as they excavate the remains of the house，which was knocked down in 1759．Experts hope to unearth evidence to support theories that Shakespeare wrote many of his most famous works at the property．

71．This excavation intends toC．
A．know something about the playwright's dust hole
B．search for some treasure in the dust hole
C．explore the life of William Shakespeare
D．find something that Shakespeare lost

74．The underlined phrase"the blanks"in Paragraph 5 refers toD
A．the ruins of New Place

12．A．Goods for auction （拍賣） sales
B．Auction sales in history
C．Definition of bidding
D．Way to sell more goods by auction
E．Making a larger profit as an auctioneer
F．Brief introduction to auctions
61．F
Auctions are public sales of goods，conducted by an officially approved auctioneer．He asks the crowd assembled in the auction-room to make offers，or"bids"，for the various items on sale．He encourages buyers to bid higher figures，and finally names the highest bidder as the buyer of the goods．This is called"knocking down"the goods，for the bidding ends when the auctioneer strikes a small hammer on a table at which he stands．
62．B
The ancient Roman probably invented sales by auction，and the English word comes from the Latin auction，meaning"increasing"．The Romans usually sold in this way the goods taken in war．In England in the eighteenth centuries，goods were often sold"by the candle"：a short candle was lit by the auctioneer，and bids could be made while it stayed alight．
63．A
Practically all goods whose qualities vary are sold by auction．Among these are coffee，skins，wool，tea，furs，silk and wines．Auction sales are also usual for land and property，furniture，pictures，rare books，old china and similar works of art．
64．D
An auction is usually advertised beforehand with full particulars of the articles to be sold and where and when they can be viewed by potential buyers．If the advertisement cannot give full details，catalogues are printed，and each group of goods to be sold together，called a"lot"，is usually given a number．The auctioneer need not begin with Lot 1and continue in the order of numbers：he may wait until he notices the fact that certain buyers are in the room and then produce the lots they are likely to be interested in．
65．E
The auctioneer's services are paid for in the form of a percentage of the price the goods are sold for．The auctioneer therefore has a direct interest in pushing up the bidding as high as possible．He will not waste time by starting the bidding too low．He will also play on the opponents among his buyers and succeed in getting a high price by encouraging two business competitors to bid against each other．
