[填空题]Questions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage.
Paper is different from other waste produce because it comes from a sustainable resource: trees. Unlike the minerals and oil used to make plastics and metals, trees are replaceable. Paper is also biodegradable, so it does not pose as much threat to the environment when it is discarded. While 45 out of every 100 tons of wood fibre used to make paper in Australia comes from waste paper, the rest comes directly from virgin fibre from forests and plantations. By world standard this is a good performance since the worldwide average is 33 per cent waste paper. Governments have encouraged waste paper collection and sorting schemes and at the same time, the paper industry has responded by developing new recycling technologies that have paved the way for even greater utilisation of used fibre. As a result, industry’s use of recycled fibres is expected to increase at twice the rate of virgin fibre over the coming year

[简答题]Questions 56 to 60 are based on the following passage.
An important part of police strategy, rapid police response is seen by police officers and the public alike as offering tremendous benefits. The more obvious ones are the ability of police to apply first-aid lifesaving techniques quickly and the greater likelihood of arresting people who may have participated in a crime. It aids in identifying those who witnessed an emergency or crime, as well as in collecting evidence. The overall reputation of a police department, too, is enhanced if rapid response is consistent, and this in itself promotes the prevention of crime. Needless to say, rapid response offers the public some degree of satisfaction in its police force.
While these may be the desired consequences of rapid police response, actual research has not shown it to be quite so beneficial. For example, it has been demonstrated that rapid response leads to a greater likelihood of arrest only if respo
[填空题]Questions 51 to 55 are based on the following passage.
Canadian authorities relayed that suspicion to the U. S. Coast Guard, which dispatched a cutter to intercept the vessel. After a two-week chase, the cutter’s crew finally boarded the Cao Yu 6025, a stateless ship, south of Japan. In the hold, they found damning evidence: 110 tons of tuna and shark fins, and a drift gillnet almost 20 kilometers long--an indiscriminate killer of marine life banned on high seas under an international agreement.
Out of sight, and mostly out of mind, the oceans are under siege. Scientists from around the world are reporting global disturbances in the seas that threaten to bring Richard Cashin’s grim warning home to every Canadian household. From the polar seas to the tropics, fish populations have collapsed or teeter on the brink. In a third of the Pacific, plankton that form the foundation of the marine food chain are vanishing. In every corner of the planet, increasing t

[单项选择]Questions 46 to 50 are based on the following passage.
I saw a television advertisement recently for a new product called an air sanitizer. A woman stood in her kitchen, spraying the empty space in front of her as though using Mace against an imaginary assailant. She appeared very determined. Where others are satisfied with antibacterial-laced sponges, dish soaps, hand sanitizers and telephone wipes, here was a woman who sought to sterilize the air itself.
As a casual student of microbiology, I find it hard to escape the absurdity here. This woman is, like any human being, home to hundreds of trillions of bacteria. Bacteria make up a solid third, by weight, of the contents of her intestines. If you were to sneak into her bathroom while she was showering--and based on my general impression of this woman from the advertisement, I don’t recommend this--and secret away a teaspoon of the water at her feet, you would find some 820 billion bacteria. Bacteria are una

[填空题]Questions 47 to 51 are based on the following passage.
On March 18,1965, Leonov, the Russian astronaut, walked in outer space for the first time. Several months later, a similar feat was performed by the first American astronaut. Both of these space walkers had spent months previous to their flights learning how to control their movements under the strange conditions which exist in space. Wearing their thick space suits, they learned to deal with an environment where there is neither weight nor gravity, neither up nor down.
We don’t realize how much we depend on the earth’s gravity until we are deprived of it. Then our feet no longer stay on the ground; we float around in the air, the slightest touch may send us drifting off in the opposite direction.
In the laboratories where astronauts are trained for their journeys, they are subjected to conditions that resemble those of flight. It takes time for them to prepare for the great changes that occur
[单项选择]Questions 57 to 61 are based on the following passage.
Three hundred years ago news travelled by word of mouth or letter, and circulated in pubs and coffee houses in the form of pamphlets, newsletters. Everything changed in 1833 when the first mass-audience newspaper, The New York Sun., pioneered the use of advertising to reduce the cost of news, thus giving advertisers access to a wider audience.
Now, the news industry is returning to something closer to the coffee house. The Internet is making news more participatory, social, diverse and partisan (党派的) ,reviving the loose ethos of the era before mass media. Ordinary people are increasingly involved in compiling, sharing, filtering, discussing and distributing news through, like Twitter, Mobile-phone and some Social-networks.
The web has allowed new providers of news, from individual bloggers to sites such as The Huffington Post, to rise to prominence in a very short space of time. And it has mad
