二、阅读理解（共两节，满分30分）

第一节（共10小题；每小题2分，满分20分）

阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A、B、C、D）中，选出最佳选项，并将答案涂在相应的答题卡上。

A

Human needs seem endless. When a hungry man gets a meal , he begins to think about an overcoat ; when a manager gets a new sports car , a big house and pleasure boats dance into view.

The many needs of mankind might be made up of several levels . When there is money enough to satisfy one level of needs, another level appears.

The first and most basic level of needs involves food. Once this level is satisfied, the second level of needs, clothing and some sort of shelter, appears. By the end of World War Ⅱ, these needs were satisfied for a great majority of Americans. Then a third level appeared. It included such items as automobiles and new houses.

A fifth level would probably involve needs that can be achieved best by community action. Consumers may be spending more on taxes to pay for government action against disease, ignorance, crime and prejudice. After filling our stomachs, our clothes closets, our garages, our teeth and our minds, we now may seek to ensure health, safety and leisure to enjoy more fully the good things on the first four levels.

21. Man will begin to think about such needs as housing and clothing only when he has _______.

A. saved up enough money

B. grown dissatisfied with his simple shelter

C. satisfied his need of food

D. learned to build houses

22. It can be inferred from the passage that by the end of World War Ⅱ, most Americans ______.

A. were very confident

B. lived in poverty

C. had their new houses

D. did not own automobiles

23. Which of the following is NOT related to “physical satisfaction”?

A. Watching a football match.

B. A comfortable home.

C. A good meal.

D. A family car.

24. What is the people’s main concern on the fourth level?

A. More goods.

B. More mental satisfaction.

C. Community action.

D. More earnings.

25. The author tends to think that the fifth level _______.

A. would be easier to attain than the fourth level

B. would be more concerned with social services

C. would lose interest in “physical satisfaction”

D. would be attainable before the government takes action

B

How to Fend off Computer Viruses

WASHINGTON—Considering the serious warnings lately about Internet viruses, users may be tempted to unplug their machines just to keep them safe. In reality, common sense and a few basic tips can keep Internet surfers secure.

Anti-virus software is a must, and it should be updated(更新) at least once a week to recognize newly released viruses.

People with broadband Internet connections should also have a firewall. These protect the computer from attacks by hackers.

Then it is time to think about computer habits. Unlike old viruses, which spread only through shared diskettes, the Internet brings viruses straight to the email-box. If an e-mail with attachment comes from an unknown sender, or unexpectedly from a known sender, it should not be opened.

On receipt of an unexpected attachment from a friend, experts suggests a telephone call to make sure of the mail’s source before opening.

26. Why should anti-virus software be updated at least once a week? Because _______.

A. the newly published anti-virus software is more expensive

B. the previous anti-virus software cannot work any longer

C. the inventors of viruses have suggested this idea

D. computer viruses are always developing

D. Whenever you receive an e-mail, you should make a call to ensure its source.

30. Which of the following is NOT right according to the passage?

A. We can do something to keep our computers safe.

B. Anti-virus software made in 1995 is hard to protect today’s computers.

C. We should unplug our computers to fend off viruses.

D. Even an e-mail attachment coming from a friend may not be safe to open.

They are filled 39 dirt and waste which cannot be cleaned out. In many places, water is not safe for us to use. Lake Eric was 40 a beautiful lake. Now ,it has been called --- a dying lake. Waste from nearly homes and factories has been dumped into 41 .Fish can no longer live in because of its polluted water. George Washington once called the Potomac--- 42 finest river in the world. Now its water is no longer blue. Instead, it is soupy green. Suds (肥皂泡沫), from detergents （洗涤剂；洗衣粉）used to wash clothes, often cover the water of our rivers. Water cannot 43 (make) in a factory.
