There is evidence that the usual variety of high blood pressure is, in part, a family dise

ase. Since families have similar genes as well as similar environment, family diseases could be due to shared genetic influences, to shared environmental factors, or to both. For some years, the role of one's environmental factor commonly shared by families, namely, dietary salt, has been studied at Brookhaven National Laboratory. These studies suggest that chronic excess salt ingestion can lead to high blood pressure in man and animals. Some individuals, however, and some rats consume large amounts of salt without developing high blood pressure. No matter how strictly all environmental factors were controlled in these experiments, some salt - fed animals never develop hypertension whereas a few rapidly developed very severe hypertension followed by early death. These marked variations were interpreted to result from differences in genetic constitution.

By mating in successive generations only those animals that failed to develop hypertension from salt ingestion, a resistant strain (the" R" strain) has been evolved in which consumption of large quantities of salt fails to influence the blood pressure significantly. In contrast, by mating only animals that quickly develop hypertension from salt, a sensitive strain ("S" strain) has also been developed.

The availability of these two strains permits investigations not heretofore possible. They provide a plausible laboratory model on which to investigate some clinical aspects of the human proto - types of hypertension. More important, there might be the possibility of developing methods by which genetic susceptibility of human beings to high blood pressure can be defined without waiting for its appearance.

Which statement relates the main idea of this passage?

A.When salt is added to their diets, rats and men react in much the same way.

B.The near future will see a cure for high blood pressure.

C.Modem research has shown that high blood pressure is a result of salt in the diet.

D.A tendency toward high blood pressure may be a hereditary factor.

PET covers the four main language skills—reading, writing, listening and speaking, as well as testing grammar and vocabulary. It therefore provides evidence of practical skills. Studying for PET is a popular way to improve your language skills and use them in a wide range of contexts(上下文). PET is recognized by many employers and educational institutions as proof of intermediate level English skills.

SECTION B PASSAGES

Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.

听力原文: Real policemen hardly recognize any resemblance between their lives and what they see on TV, if they ever get home on time. Of course, there are similarities, but the cops do not think much of them. The first difference is that a policeman's real life revolves around the law. Most of his training is in criminal law. He has to know exactly what actions are crimes and what evidence can be used to prove them in court. He has to know nearly as much as a professional lawyer, and what is more, he has to apply it in his feet, in the dark and rain, running down an alley after someone he wants to talk to. Little of his time is spent in chatting to almost naked ladies or in dramatic confrontations with desperate criminals. He will spend most of his working life typing millions of words on thousands of forms about hundreds of sad, unimportant people who are guilty of stupid, petty crimes. Most televise, on crime drama is a- bout finding the criminal; as soon as he is arrested, the story is over. In real life, finding criminals is seldom much of a problem. In fact, little effort is spent on searching.

A real policeman has to do all the following EXCEPT _______.

A.studying law

B.typing reports

C.talking to different people

D.chatting to naked ladies

SECTION B PASSAGES

Directions: In this section, you will hear several passages. Listen to the passages carefully and then answer the questions that follow.

听力原文: The R-J Reynolds Tobacco Company has launched a campaign to sell a cigarette that it says is safer for smokers than other cigarettes. The company says its new product, called Eclipse, is less likely to cause cancer and lung diseases.

Eclipse looks like a normal cigarette. It heats tobacco covering a thin piece of carbon. The carbon becomes hot when lit, but it does not burn. The result is smoke that is mostly water and a sweetener called glycerin. Whereas smoke from a traditional cigarette is mainly a mixture of the chemical nicotine and tar.

The company said the smoke that Eclipse contains 80% lower levels of the substances believed to cause cancer. It also said Eclipse produces 70% less of the chemicals that may damage the genetic material in smokers. However, the advertisements for Eclipse do not claim that it is less likely to cause heart disease or problems for pregnant women.

Public health officials and anti-smoking groups criticized the campaign for Eclipse. They said there is not enough scientific evidence to support the claim that Eclipse may reduce the risk of cancer. The American Cancer Society also stated that it wants proof to support the claim that Eclipse is a safer cigarette.

Which of the following is TRUE about Eclipse?

A.It is a new kind of cigarette.

B.It won’t cause lung diseases.

C.It is the new brand name of a cigarette.

D.It won’t cause cancer.
