Passage One

Questions 21 to 25 are based on the following passage.
It’s interesting that the arrival of snow has
different effects on people in different countries. For
some countries it is an important happening to celebrate each year, while for others a catastrophe
（灾害）
.
But
there
are countries
between
these
two
kinds
that
normally
expect snow
some
time
over
the
winter months, but never receive snow regularly or
in the same quantities every year.
Britain
is
one of them, for which the arrival of snow quite simply causes problems. Within hours of the first
snowfalls, however light, roads are blocked, trains and buses have to stop in the middle of the way
.
Normal
communications
are
affected
as
well:
telephone
calls
become
difficult
and
the
post
immediately
takes
more
time
than
usual.
And
almost
within
hours
there
are
also
certain
shortages
—
bread,
vegetables
and
other
things
—
not
because
all
these
things
can
no
longer
be
produced or sent to shops, but mainly because people are frightened and go out and store up with
food and so on
——“
just for fear that something bad should happen.
”

But why does snow have this effect? After all, the Swiss, the Austral
ians and the Canadians don’t
have such problems. It is simply because there is not enough planning and preparation. We need
money to buy equipment to deal with snow and ice. To keep the roads clear, for example, requires
snow-ploughs
（扫雪机）
and machines to spread salt. The reason why a country like Britain does
not buy snow-ploughs is that they are
only used for a few days in any one year, and the money
could be more useful in other things such as hospitals, education, helping the old and so on..

21. According to the writer, Britain is a country_____.



which has regular snow







B. which is not well prepared for snow







C. for which snow is a catastrophe







D. for which snow is a wonder
arrival of snow in Britain affects all of the following except_______.







A. traffic




B. communications





C. food supplies




D. service quality
After a few hours’ snowing there are often some shortages of food because______.








A. shops have closed down




B. people buy as much as they can






C. farmers cannot produce any more


D. people eat more vegetables in winter
first reason that the British do not buy snow-ploughs is that________.






A. spreading salt is good enough

A. which have snow either as a yearly happening to celebrate or as something terrible.





B. which either have heavy snow or light snow






C. to which snow either causes problems or no problems






D. which either have snow-ploughs or no snow-ploughs


























Passage Two
Questions 26 to 30 are based on the following passage.



Do you forget to turn off the lights and heaters when you go out of a room? In 2040 it will not
matter.
They
will
turn
themselves
off
and
on
again
when
you
return.
Y
ou
will
choose
the
temperature for each room, the lighting and the humidity.
A
sensor will
detect the presence of a
human (and, with luck, ignore the dog!) and turn the systems on, and when the humans leave it
will turn them off again.




The sensors will work through the central home computer, and they will do much more than
just turn the fires and lights on and off for you. They will detect faulty electrical appliances, plugs
or switches, isolate them so that they cannot harm anyone, and then warn you that they need repair.
They
will
detect(
发现
)
fire
and
if
you
are
out
of
the
house,
the
computer
will
call
the
fire
brigade(
消防队
).
It will
also
call
the
police
should
the
sensors
detect
an
intruder(
入侵者
)
This
will not be very difficult because the locks on the outside doors will be electronic. Y
ou w
ill open
them
using
your
personal
card
—
the
one
you
use
for shopping
—
maybe
using
a
number
known
only to you.




It will be impossible to lose the
card, and a housebreaker will have to tamper(
拨弄
) with the
lock
or
with
a
window.
It
is
not
very
difficult
to
make
such
tampering
send
a
signal
to
the
computer.



The computer will
be
more
than
a
fireman-policeman-servant. It
will
be
an
entertainer,
and
most of your entertainment will come right into your home. It does now, of course, but by 2040
“entertainment” w
ill mean much more. For one thing, you will be able to take part actively, rather
than just watching.
26. The author intends to tell us that in 2040_____.
A. we will live without lights and heaters
B. lights and heaters will go on and off automatically
C. there will be no switches of lights and heaters
D. we will use many more lights and heaters
Which of the following statements is NOT true?
A. Without a computer, the sensor cannot do much.
B. The sensor will detect fire and put it out.
C.Y
ou can be taken for an intruder if you tamper with the lock.
D. The sensor is multi-functional
28. According to the author, in 2040 new technology will_____.

A. free us from the keys we use today
B. eliminate all crimes
C. turn everything into sensors
