Task 1
Directions: After reading the following passage, you will find 5 questions or unfinished statements, numbered 36 through 40. For each question or statement there are 4 choices marked A, B, C, and D. You should make the correct choice.
When the steam engine was invented in the eighteenth century, it began one of the greatest revolutions that have ever happened in our world. The invention of the petrol engine at the end of the nineteenth century led to another enormous change in our lives. And the computer is almost certainly going to be no less important an invention than these engines were.
Just as there was a Stone Age, an Iron Age and so on, we have been living for centuries in a
Paper Age, during which almost all information was kept and sent on paper; and so much of it is wasted after it has been used once that enormous numbers of trees have to be cut down every year to provide us with paper. But now, with the computer, enormous amounts of information can be stored and sent without any paper at all, using small discs or the Internet.
Computers have also made it possible to do very difficult calculations very much faster than any earlier machine could. Computers also allow one to send information to others anywhere in the world via the Internet and in turn to receive information back from them. One can send a very long message more quickly from England to Australia, for example, than from one's house to someone in the garden. Computers are not only used for writing; they can produce diagrams and pictures, and they can be used for playing games. One now sees them at airports and railway stations, in hotels and restaurants; in fact, almost everywhere where people gather.
The author seems to say that the invention of the computer is ______.
A.not so important as that of the steam and petrol engines
B.at least as important as that of the steam and petrol engines
C.less important than that of the steam and petrol engines
D.far more important than that of the steam and petrol engines
SECTION B INTERVIEW
Directions: In this section you will hear everything ONCE ONLY. Listen carefully and then answer the questions that follow. Questions 1 to 5 are based on an interview. At the end of the interview you will be given 10 seconds to answer each of the following five questions.
Now listen to the interview.
听力原文:W: Hi, there. How are you going with your tutorial next week?
M: Oh, good. I've decided to talk about paper and its use.
W: Fascinating. I'm sure.
M: Yes, I think it's an interesting topic. Do you know about how much paper you use every year?
W: Well, I've never thought about that. I can't answer your question. I suppose you can tell me something about it.
M: OK. It will be a good practice for my tutorial next week.
W: How much paper does one person use every year?
M: (1)In 1900, the world's use of paper was about 1 kilogram for each person in a year. Now some countries use as much as 50 kilograms of paper for each person in a year.
W: This shows how far advanced the country is.
M: You're right. Countries like the United States, Britain, Japan, Germany and Sweden certainly use more paper than other countries.
W: I'm very interested in the history of paper. Are you going to talk about it next week?
M: Yes, of course.
W: Where was paper first made?
M: In China. The Chinese first made paper about 2, 000 years ago. China still has pieces of paper which were made as long ago as that. (2)But Chinese paper was not made from the wood of trees. It was made from the hair-like parts of certain plants. In Egypt and the west, paper was not very commonly used before the year 1400. The Egyptians wrote on papyrus, a kind of paper made from the pith or the stems of large aquatic cyperaceous plants. Europeans used parchment for many hundreds of years.
W: What was parchment?
M: Parchment was made from the skin of certain young animals. They were very strong. We have learnt some of the most important facts of European history from records that were kept on parchment.
W: Oh, I see. How about paper in Europe?
M: Well, paper was not made in southern Europe until about the 1100s. Scandinavia which now makes a great deal of the world's paper but didn't begin to make it until 1500. (3)It was a German named Schaeffer who found out that the best paper could be made from trees. After that Canada, Sweden, Norway, Finland and the United States became the most important in paper making. They are forest countries. Today (4)Finland makes the best paper in the world and the paper industry of the country is the biggest in the world. New paper-making machines are very big, and they make paper very fast. The biggest machines can make a piece of paper 300 metres long and six metres wide in one minute.
W: Oh, my god! That's amusing.
M: What are the uses of paper?
W: Paper is used for newspapers, books, writing paper, envelopes, wrapping paper, paper bags...
M: Yes. Only half of the paper that is made is used for books and newspapers. Have you got any idea about other uses of paper?
W: No, I'm afraid not.
M: There are many other uses. Paper is very good for keeping us warm. Houses are often insulated with paper. You have perhaps seen homeless people sleep on a large number of newspapers.
W: Yes, I have. So they are insulating themselves against the cold.
M: You are right. In Finland, it is very cold in winter. It is sometimes 40 degrees below zero centigrade.
(5)The farmers wear paper boots in the snow. Nothing could be warmer.
W: Oh, that's unbelievable.
M: Now more and more things are made of paper. We have had paper plates, cups and dishes for a long time. But now we hear that chairs, tablets, and even beds can be made of paper. With paper boots and shoes, you can wear paper hats, paper dresses, and paper raincoats. When you have used them once, you throw them away and buy new ones. You know the latest in pa
