Each passage is followed by some questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A), B), C) and D). You should decide on th

31、e best choice and mark the corresponding letter on the Answer Sheet with a single line through the center.Passage OneQuestions 61 to 65 are based on the following passage: On May 29, 1973, Thomas Bradley, a black man, was elected mayor of Los Angeles. Los Angeles is the third largest city in the Uni

32、ted States, with a population of three million. About si*teen percent of the citys population are black. News of this elction appeared on the front pages of newspapers everywhere in the United States. Here is how one major newspaper reported the event: Los Angeles Elects Bradley Mayor, Defeating Yor

33、tyBlack Win 56% of Votes. Bradley called his victory the fulfillment of dream. During his childhood and youth, people had kept telling him, You cant do this, you cant go there, because youre a Negro. Nevertheless he had won a decisive victory over a man who had been the citys mayor for three times.

34、Bradley had won 56.3 percent of the votes; Yorty had won 43.7 percent. Los Angeles voters had many opportunities to judge Thomas Bradley and to form an opinion of him. The son of a poor farmer from Te*as, he joined the Los Angeles police force in 1940. During his twenty-one years on the police force

35、 he earned a law degree by attending school at night. He was elected to the city council ten years ago. At the time of Los Angeles election three other American cities already had black mayors, but none of those cities had as large a population as Los Angeles. Besides, the percentage of blacks in th

36、ose cities was much larger. Cleveland, Ohio, was thirty-si* percent black when Carl Stokes was elected mayor of Cleveland in 1967. In the same year Richard Hatcher was elected mayor of Gary, Indiana, which was fifty-five percent black. In Newark, New Jersey, si*ty percent of the population were blac

37、k when Kenneth Glibson was elected in 1970. Thus the election of a black mayor in those cities was not very surprising. In Los Angeles thousands of white citizens voted for Thomas Bradley because they believe he would be a better mayor than the white candidate. Bradley had spent forty-eight of his f

38、ifty-five years in Los Angeles. Four years ago Bradley lost the mayoral election to Yorty. This time Bradley won.61. Thomas Bradley was elected mayor of Los Angeles because_. A) the black people made up a large percentage of the population in the cityB) more than half of its citizens, black and whit

39、e, were in favor of himC) he had spent forty-eight of his fifty-five years in the cityD) he was considered the best candidate in the history of the city62.

40、 small black populationB) Los Angeles was the place where most of the major U.S. newspapers were basedC) 56% of blacks voters and 44% of white voters in Los Angeles had voted for himD) it had fulfilled the dream of the black people throughout the United States63.Which of the following cities had the

43、d him to do a better jobC) Because he held a law degree from a good universityD) Because they simply wanted to give him a chancePassage TwoQuestions 66 to 70 arc based on the following passage: The U.S. generates about four billion tons of solid waste a year. More than 90 percent is posed of agricul

44、tural and mining waste. About 3 percent is from industrial wastes. 250 million tons of garbage es out from homes, schools, office buildings, stores and hospitals. This mass of metals, paper, food, plastic, rubber and glass, which is all mi*ed together, seems of no earthly use to anyone. Or is it Man

45、y efforts across the country indicate that new technology, properly applied, might some day turn these millions of tons of garbage into an e*cellent source of raw materials for new uses. Several new projects are carried out to study the possibility of treating wastes through pyrolysis-a system of re

46、ducing garbage to basic chemical, liquids and gases which have mercial value. In Florida, a special tube system provides automatic transport of garbage to a central collection building. In short, many new ideas are being tested, and many will be needed, since no one method is likely to prove suitabl

47、e everywhere. However, many difficult economic and social questions must be answered before real progress can be made. Can recovered materials pete with new materials What will be needed as encouragement to make resource recovery work Will citizens pay the cost of changing our waste system66. The au

52、terials will be able to pete with new materials C) working people in the U.S. have been encouraged to recover solid wasteD) citizens may be unwilling to pay the costs of changing the waste systemPassage ThreeQuestions 71 to 75 are based on the following passage:Kate, a student in 8th grade, asked lo

53、ts of questions in math classuntil the teacher told her to stop. He said I was confusing the other kids with my questions, she recalls. When boys asked questions, he took them a lot more seriously. You might have thought that such obvious forms of discrimination had ended by now. But Esther Greengla

54、ss, a psychology professor at York University in Toronto, syas many recent studies have found that girls may still be faced with mi*ed messages about self-confidence and success, which can lower their self-esteem and discoverage them from achieving their potential. The problem worsens at about age 1

55、1 or 12, when girls start hitting puberty(青春期)and discovering boys. Many girls grades drop, and so does their self-esteem. Girls get the message that, if youre going to be popular, you cant be too smart because the boys wont like you, says Greenglass, who has written e*tensively on se* roles and dis

56、crimination. Often, girls also sense that boys are considered more capable. In studies in the United States, researchers found that when teachers asked questions, they almost always made eye contact with boys, unless they had attended courses raising their level of awareness. Adding to the problem,

57、according to Greenglass, is the lack of female role models in old te*tbooks still found in many Canadian schools. How are girls attitudes affected Studies have shown that boys usually attribute their successes to their superior ability, while girls attribute their own success to luck. When boys fail

58、 at a task, they tend to blame it on e*ternal factors; when girls fail, they blame their own lack of ability. Boys are more likely to try a second time to succeed.71.
